Ready or Not, Here I ComeReady or Not, Here I ComePosted May 19, 2004 13:57 UTC (Wed) by Prototerm (guest, #20227)In reply to: It's all about choice - or lack of by amtota Parent article: The Spatial Way The Registry was one of the absolute worst features added to Windows. A set of flat files in some sort of configuration directory works much better. Easily read by humans, and easily copied to backup. Nowadays, finding a particular windows setting has become a frustrating game of hide-and-seek. I would really hate to see Linux go that route. It's one thing to clone the look-and-feel of Windows, but do we have to copy the mistakes, too? What's next, add Windows' security flaws?
