Do I really need all those files and directories?

The install instructions say load everything to the web space. But are the files like install.txt, license.txt and the docs file really needed? I know they are tiny enough not to worry about, but I prefer keeping things clean and tight wherever possible. :cool:

As you stated they are small but you can delete the ones you know are informational only - or transfer to your local for future reference if ever needed

Thanks, kobra. Yes, I was thinking they are more useful to me on my local drive and no use to anyone on the server. :D
