[Opensim-dev] Ini file(s) loading

[Brianna]

I prefer to see a 'wizard' quick interview startup like MySql for Win has 
incorporated. I believe that approach is user friendly and less prone to 
error than editing OpenSim.ini or the suggested multi ini's. One box check 
for OSGrid would save many edits in Network, as an example. Those of us that 
do this everyday are often not considerate to how formidable to a new user 
OpenSim appears. After a day or so of comfort then editing ini.example to 
fine tune will make for a happy camper and a hell of a lot less questions in 
game or IRC.
