It carries all of the libraries that ae does. The hidden advantage of elvis is that it only carries symbols from libc and libncurses (for reference, true pico also only carries libc and ncurses...) ...Which means: 1) The size difference is negligible. 2) It'll still fit, since it (I presume, from what you're trying to say) uses the same libraries as ae. Which, combined with: 1) nano-tiny is relatively easy to use. 2) nano-tiny has fewer bugs. ...Means: 1) nano-tiny should be the base system editor of choice. 2) This thread needs to end. ;) Chris Regards, Alex.

Sawfish GNOME control center problem
Hi everyone, I seem to be having a problem with Sawfish's GNOME capplets: unlike all other capplets, Sawfish's capplets always require me to press "Try" before pressing "OK" to actually make the changes have any effect. Otherwise, they are silently ignored, as if I had pressed "Cancel". On all machines other than this one, the Sawfish capplets work in the expected manner; i.e., pressing "OK" makes the changes take effect. I have had this problem for some time, and I now have the latest Sawfish .debs (0.30.2). I am using Helix GNOME, and Debian woody. There are still some packages that are out-of-date, but I doubt they will fix the problem, since it has existed for quite a while now, and it seems specific to this machine, suggesting a configuration problem. Does anyone know of any configuration files that might cause this..? Any help in figuring out this problem would be greatly appreciated. I am not subscribed to this list, so please send any replies directly to my email address. Thanks, Alex. --- PGP/GPG Fingerprint: EFD1 AC6C 7ED5 E453 C367 AC7A B474 16E0 758D 7ED9 -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.12 GCS/CM>CC/IT d- s:+ a16 C++()>$ UL>$ P---() L+++>+ E+>+ W+(-) N o?
