They seem a little confused -- the web site says it's the final, the
installer says it's Beta 4, the Notes page says it's Beta 2, and the
installed version object says it's version 5.2 rather than 5.12. What
do you think they're smoking over there in Norway? :)

The WarpIN installer couldn't find my previous version and tried to
install to the default \bin\ directory. The installer needs a Browse
function so you don't have to enter the target directory manually.

Opera is still unuseable (at least here) -- the url field can't be
edited from the keyboard. Backspace and Delete keys have no effect on
the url field. When they fix this, I can test it further.

And you can't uninstall it. The WarpIN installer doesn't allow this (at
least here). Now I have both 5.12 and 5.2 objects on my Desktop.

I'm using WarpIN 9.20 dated 11Aug2002. They should get rid of WarpIN
and just supply a .zip file with a Rexx file to create the objects.
