No problem, I have so much time that I can test snippets from
others which have no lust to do it self.

after all now...

Oh, have I tested right.

Yes, "only". Nobody knows that file names on Windows have not to contain 
\/:*?"<>|
Why does nobody see the error box from explorer if he tries to change
a name to some contains it? Because nobody do it.
Additional nobody knows that a part of the representation of a shortcut
is a file. But why should the common rule also apply to such special
files??

>So it was this way:  "...... <shortcut os="windows"  name="JPR: Jennys

And we know that there are boobies like me which gaves support for
such things... I hope I have generated much money for you.

I am happy that you allow me to test for you. Thanks. I have
not to test to know that you are not right and therefore you
can wonder.

I will be happy if I can solve your next problem.

As clarification: 
I have no problem if someone uses IzPack for a commercial 
project. I do it also.
I have no problem if someone sends us a snippet which contains
a oversight.
I have no problem if someone changes the code to fog internal
things because this is an open list; but he/she has to test
the changed code.

I have a little problem if someone means he/she can use IzPack
for learning java.

I have a big problem if someone sends us snippet which 
contains changed code, but where never tested in that
occurrence. Then I get the feeling I am a worker for free
for him. That's not the idea of free software.
