Agreed; as it is, I keep having to use 'more' after practically every command, which unfortunately alters the behavior of some of them (e.g., ls). screen, while potentially useful, does not have the ability to give a wide terminal on sc. This facility would be especially useful for those of us who for various reasons (e.g., security in our case) who don't run X. I will confess that my ability to help out with this is rather minimal, due to my not particularly good C programming abilities (I much prefer Perl), but I'll take a look at the syscons source and see if I have any ideas. -Allen -- Allen Smith easmith@beatrice.rutgers.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
