Yup. Totally agree, especially if you can make getting anything that isn't already installed, (but that you want), just a simple command away. I just love this Ubuntu feature (presumably available on other Linux variants too): $ freeloader The program 'freeloader' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install freeloader Make sure you have the 'universe' component enabled bash: freeloader: command not found _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
