I think the idea is quite silly all in all - There are 23k Ports a lot of which will have executeables - so everytime I make a typo - a database with - say 30,000-40,000 elements and give me a list back of things I could install from say the russian ports - I don't speak russian. I suggest looking at extending locate(1) or apropos(1) instead. Installed as a default in the shell I would count as a major reason to abandon FreeBSD. _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
