Well, I have nto tried the first two items yet today, but I am curious witht he last one. For those of us that are not source code compiling savvy, is it a file I can edit after the Mac DMG file installs? If so, then where is it located in the Mac OS X file system? Otherwise, I am going to need assistance with compiling the source code on my own. Hence my question with an easy way to get access to it and wonder when that will be made into an easily changable item for the non-programmer. I would have figured there would be an option build into the web admin for just this event. Thanks and I'll let ya know how the otehr two turn out.
