Yes, I was thinking about this. However once I created the full install
script, I backed off to work on other things.
There is a core function btw that installs a sql dump file. Look for it in
the setup portion of fallout. I want functionality to install modules
separately yet able to use the same backup code. I am also thinking of
trying to allow a check for updates at a location given by the
module/plugin developer.

Ah I see. Still strange that it even bothered those tables at all?
Thanks Randall.
