So, call me slow, but are you trying to say that ``Shared libraries are not necessary''?  Gee, I'm glad we've clarified that one...  hai ima wakarimashita!!

I just wish that I could persuade the not ``...actively running'' processes
on my 3max to free up their resources.  Hey, I could write a new system call...
No... a kernel daemon...  with a user mode configuration file and a set of
tools to manipulate the file on...  dumb terminals and X displays.  And, then
I could post it to comp.sources.unix...  Wow!
