general enhancement request
« on: April 20, 2015, 07:17:47 PM »
I use nutcracker on multiple machines, my desktop, my laptop, my workbench computer, and my wife's desktop when I need to show her something.  When a new release comes in I don't run around installing it on every machine.  Would like to see another icon in the start menu to show the readme.txt file so that I don't have to start up the program to find out what release I have installed on any given machine.  Then I know whether I need to run the latest upgrade on the machine I am currently using before I start up the program.  As a work around I have begun creating a desktop shortcut to the readme file so with a quick click I know what release is running on a machine before I start using it.

With the rapid release updates in the beta, I keep in check by installing each new version to a new folder.
This allows me to switch to back and forth between versions to verify if an issue discovered is operator error or not.

Guess what version I installed to  \xlights4-23 ?
