Inetutils' ifconfig does something similar, and since it was not rejected, I don't agree with you. ifconfig does not do something similar, system/*.c is for output generation and argument parsing; this cannot be tested using features. Depending on which operating system you use, ifconfig will print things differently, on solaris it will print differnet output than on GNU/Linux or HUPX. _______________________________________________ bug-inetutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-inetutils
