[Opensim-users] toward a more simple first time log in

[paul emery]

I think the hardest thing to explain to a first time os stand-alone user is
how to get the uri into the grid manager after they install the client. So,
I like the idea of using sl client with arguments (as in a windows shortcut)
pointed at the standalone. But explaining how to put the shortcut arguments
in would probably be harder then explaining the grid manager. So, I got me a
shareware install creator and used it to package up the installed sl viewer
folders into one exe file to include a desktop shortcut with arguments
pointing to the install director. Now a person can click on a website link
to download and install one file which puts sl client in its default place
and also puts a shortcut on the desktop with argument to start sl viewer.
This link can be on our wifi page for them to use after they register their
account and get their ava name.

It works ok other then takes a long time to install the exe.

Is this crazy or a good idea or maybe a violation of how to use the sl
viewer? Anyway feed back welcome. Don't be afraid to tell me if this is a
crack pot idea.
