Perhaps you could leave the pejoratives out next time; it really doesn't add anything to the discussion. Like it or not, a significant number of our customers (and a larger number of those we'd like to have as customers) are familiar and accustomed to the GNU commands; referring to their environment of choice as "warts" and "dumping ground" does nothing useful. - Bart -- Bart Smaalders Solaris Kernel Performance bart.smaalders at oracle.com http://blogs.sun.com/barts "You will contribute more with mercurial than with thunderbird."
