Good Comments
Authored by: sburr on Jun 21, '02 01:46:20PM

Thanks for posting this article. It generated some very helpful comments. Last night I fixed the password error problem. In the next release (and in the cvs version tomorrow) FC will respond to mis-typed passwords by redisplaying the password entry sheet and transmitting the new entry to sudo's stdin.

There is currently an option to generate warnings before running any command in Preferences (under the "Uniphobe" tab), but I agree that removals probably merit special treatment. They tend to zip by pretty quickly, so the user doesn't get a chance to terminate mistakes. I think I'll make the default behavior to warn before removing but include a button in the warning dialog (as well as the Preferences panel) to turn the warnings off.
