You may be coming from another platform? I can't think of any Mac
apps that do this, and frankly, I wouldn't want to use one that did.
It does sort of sound like a wizard or agent type interface, where
each "step" is completed one at a time, like the Installer or Apple
Setup Assistant. If so, those might be a better model, where there is
one window and a forward/backward button? I may have misunderstood
however - it certainly does sound like a terrible UI if each one *has*
to be in a separate window. Modal hell.
