Not to pick on Pete but this has finally reached a point that I can't stand it anymore. Why don't all you bozo's out there stop sticking your nose in things that aren't any of your business? unix-wizards predates your potty training. The people who we want to see posting either voted against or ignored this drivel. The thing that bothers me the most is that the name was changed by someone who *isn't* a wizard; now more wizard-wanna-be types are worriedly discussing what they ought to do. I'll tell them what they ought to do: shut up and butt out. --- Larry McVoy, Sun Microsystems (415) 336-7627 ...!sun!lm or lm@sun.com
