In other words, make a sample.init package. You'd really have to do
that formally, as otherwise managing the sub-libraries would be a mess
for new users.
Yep, good point.
We also were working on custom themes. This would make it possible to
do a lot of the sample initializations as (more or less) invertible
themes, selectable from the menu.
But we're short on manpower for both of those right now; the guy who
was working on custom themes went and got a day job. ...
Can you describe custom themes (and current status) in more detail?
Sounds like it could be useful.
One idea that I had is that you almost want an 'interview' mode,
similar to the turbotax interview. Maybe this idea could be mixed in
with the theme idea?
