In the past, I used to look at source code a lot more than I do these days. My main reason was that the stock distros didn't have everything that I wanted to run, so I had to download and build from source. And very often, the build process was broken so I had to fiddle with things to get them to work. Distros have improved greatly in the past decade, so I hardly ever have to examine source code for that reason. And I rarely had much other reason to look, only in the handful of code projects whose functionality I wanted to extend. -rich _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
