Like everything these woolheads think of, it is very nice for trained admins, and people used to read kernel lists, how-to's (and spend overly amounts of time on it). However the problem is that this kind of paranoia (since I assume currently it is only allowed for people using a valid tty handle) creates enormous deployment problems. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
