Thanks for all the great feedback! I installed sbase and ubase but it doesn't appear that suckless assigns them to the proper directories e.g. /bin /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin however everything is placed into /usr/local/bin. I assume there was a thought or reason? Perhaps leaving it open for choice? I was reading this site on posix directory structure[0] and not all the programs belong to any one directory but it doesn't get specific on which programs belong where lending itself to more of a judgement call i suppose. Would you consider this a good reference or is there better reading material for this? Sorry if i ask some odd questions, It seems the posix way is cleaner and proper than gnu and I'm trying to stick to it.
Side note: The readme for ubase doesn't list pcc as a known good compiler but it appears to have done the job. [0] http://www.linux4beginners.info/linux-how-to/directory-structure-posix/
