Perhaps the screen should flash, and a loud beep should sound every time a MessageBox not related to "install to package" wants to show up. Then wait 3 seconds, show a "warning, going out of install mode" MessageBox, sleep a bit more, and only then show the skip message box.
Thank you Pedro. This is the most ideal solution :)
I mean, there has got to be a way to for the program to ask the user a non install related package, right? Seriously: Everyone's clicked on a wrong button before. I know I have - I just don't remember the last time. The switch from: "do you want to format your drive?: +-----+ +-----+ + yes + + no + +-----+ +-----+ to: "do you want to format your drive?: +--------+ +---------+ + format + + cancel + +--------+ +---------+ ... Makes it much easier to understand what the software's up to.
That's right. It's sad that I never thought of this before. With this suggestion of yours, all doubts will be erased about the true nature of Cygwin. Problems such as not knowing the answer to a clear question will eventually disapper from the mailing list and we will all be happier.
