u wouldnt be able to hear the sounds tho?  both would need 3.50 build

I read that to.  I was impressed I think it's designed more for the newbie then anything else.  All us PLUS experts don't need it

well its really a nice stepp from msgplus!...
it will help the novice people.... and it will also play an important role for the publicity of all the feature... some of peoples install msgplus! just for few reason.... i.e. for hidding the banner( currently this feature is removed) and for playing sounds etc.... and by this wizzard the get some tutorials and key feature of msgplus!...
i m sure that msgplus! is on rite way....
  KeEp |t Up! .... MsgPlus! and
KeEp |t Up! patchou....

Yeah, I actually liked this when I first saw it, this feature isn't a pain in the ass, it's right to the point and easy to use. And to set up Plus for new users so they have it the way they want should be easy, and cut back on the people who have features enabled they don't and need to come here for help.
3.50 will be quite a landmark to increase the target audience of people who enjoy Plus! and this feature is just one of the small tweaks that will do this.

sounds good

good for the new users

im almost sure patchou would have already implemented this suggestion, but in case he dont: such a wizaerd should forget about old plus users .ie. it should prompt to load old preferences saved in a file.... and probably check its existance from the default saving location..

atm, it doesn't have an option to import them from a file, Messenger Plus 3.50 will keep all your old settings, but yes, it would be useful for people who have just put MsgPlus on a new computer and need the settings transfered over quickly. It's probabally best to e-mail or PM Patchou with this suggestion.
