I agree with you but that's the default for slackware and I guess that the
newbie won't even know how to remove '.' from his PATH, anyway, without it, the
problem is resolved...

Let's not loose faith. Just by watching how my students are getting
motivated, I'm convinced that it will take off !! But as I said in a previous
mail, this is less than a year since we're connected to the internet so it will
obviously take some time. Anyway, most of the ISP in Africa are based on Linux
and we already have some civil aviation telecommunication solutions based on
Linux systems...
As in Asia, most of the software are illegal copies in Africa and Microsoft is
already talking about this to the different governments. So Linux is definitly a
solution to this problem, and on the road it will develops the skills of its
users.... Oups, sorry about talking that much...

Well at least this will catch their interests, so I'll do that...
