I see on > my 2.0.5 box that cu's now separate. The ersatz cu that came with tip used to suck. It has been shipped with 2.0R by accident (since tip has been built/installed after UUCP, hence it clobbered the Taylor version). Anyway, i don't see any argument in favor of a change; just a different command syntax doesn't mean it's a better command syntax. Setup of tip seems to be much less rational for many people than Taylor UUCP setup; and those (like me) who do use UUCP get the Taylor cu setup totally for free as a side-effect of the UUCP setup. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
