Hm...well, I have just put a little note on the DESKTOP.RSC "To Output"
option that the Output is unavialable.  If you have time to remove it would
be great.  Perhaps I should open the desktop (after downloading Pacific C)
and try it myself.  I confess I am scared though.

Well, I don't want to do that BECAUSE...I have an idea to make little
add-ons for this mini distro, so you can add text editing, HTML viewing, and
GDS script.  If people start downloading the distro I'll pile this stuff in
as add-on packages (seperate downloads).
