[OT] Opinions about On-Rev

Hi Alex,

Actually, you can.

If you get the latest on-Rev client, you'll notice a drop-down menu in the 
upper-right, "on-Rev Project."

This menu lists the sites you can edit. This list is drawn from the 
/.ireviam/sites.txt file on the server. Just edit this file and you'll be 
able to access the folders you need.

For example:

-----
user.on-rev.com{tab}/home/user/public_html
mydomain.com{tab}/home/user/mydomain
anotherdomain.com{tab}/home/user/anotherdomain
-----

In a future version of the on-Rev client, the information will either be 
pulled down automatically from the server or you'll be able to configure it 
in the client.

- Bill
