[OS X TeX] I-installer Questions

[Herb Schulz]

Howdy,

The older i-Installer showed panes for all the previously downloaded
packages upon opening. Is there a way for the new i-Installer to do the same
thing or must you open the panes for each package through the open-recent
menu item?

Do you check for updates for a package by opening up the pane for that
package and pressing the Update button under the Properties tab?  If that's
how you do it then shouldn't the Properties tab be the default opening tab
for previously downloaded packages?

By the way, what is in the TeX Configure package? Do I need it if I already
had a previous version of Gerben's distribution up and running?

All in all the new i-Installer is very well done; thank you Gerben! I
particularly like the ability to view all available packages.

Thanks and Good Luck,

Herb Schulz
