A GUI tool to change the short username
Authored by: DanFrakes on Jun 02, '04 07:24:14PM
Yes. I followed the manual instructions and when I encountered an error I used the script in "Repair" mode--it did not function as expected. Please reread my post.

I was just making sure I understood you; thanks for verifying.

I appreciate you looking into the matter; as for not using the script first: The documentation claims that the script does EVERYTHING that the manual instructions include, not, as you say now, "much more".

To be clear, I don't think the documentation states that. The website simply states that ChangeShortName makes the process much easier. The ReadMe included with ChangeShortName explains the additional steps/features that ChangeShortName provides.

However, since some people aren't downloading ChangeShortName before trying to change their short username manually, I agree that it would be helpful if we state on the website that ChangeShortName offers additional benefits over the manual procedure. Thanks for the feedback.
