X is a pretty big package that apparently takes quite a bit of work to port to a new BSD system, and ports to System V are few and very far between. And since the Unix-pc is being discontinued I think waiting for version 4.0 of the utilities is a bit optimistic. I'm anxiously waiting to be proven wrong on both counts. But not holding my breath. -- Richard Foulk ...{dual,vortex,ihnp4}!islenet!richard Honolulu, Hawaii
