[MTOS-dev] Template sets > default_templates

[Bruce]

At the moment if one replaces the templates in the default templates folder 
with their own, and redoes templates.pm to match, it is
a quick and easy install with all tempalates as wanted. Making additional 
weblogs then are all the same as wqanted, one design carries through.
Then Blog.pm allows default settings.

I realize this isn't for the casual user, but developers find it handy. Is 
this going to change?
