If there's a problem, you can look back and see what the error was and 
fix it.

I suppose it's the theory that too much information is better than too

BTW, only three screens full of info?  That's a pretty small program, 
relatively speaking.  Compiling Rockbox for my iPod fills more than that 
easily.  :-)
