That way you can see what you've doing. Here's some info that might answer a few questions. http://wp.me/p1ZRa7-w Comments Either way, easier to download and make changes.

That way the bulk of the config file is local, and less has to be retrieved from buzztouch.

Any difference if you have maps or any particular features? Fred Comments Mark, that's an excellent point. Any difference if you have maps or any particular features? Fred

And then, when I'm about to compile to send to the store, I make sure my local BT_Config.txt file matches the one at buzztouch.com, so the reviewer won't be prompted for an update when they first open the app. Mark Comments No difference for me...it's only the interface design that I worry about before I download.

Comments Can you download the code and replace only selectedfiles, so as not having to remodify the manifest?

Just unzip the package and make whatever substitutions are necessary. But with 100's of files in the package, I find it easier to replace them all. Mark Comments You could indeed!
