Don't worry about stepping on toes. If someone else does something =20
better, it is always good to know. However, this one-click =20
installation thing may be appropriate for a GUI program or for a =20
browser-add-on like Zotero. I haven't seen that many Unix command line =20
applications that support one-click installations of add-ons. I guess =20
it is somehow contrary to the philosophy of these tools. But that =20
doesn't mean we couldn't add some convenience to the style =20
installation. Right now you just need to run "refdba -C addstyle =20
<file>" after downloading the style which isn't that hard either. But =20
we could add a little script which detects new styles in the directory =20
and adds them automatically. This way, you'd just have to drop them in =20
the appropriate directory.
