Quoting Eric Anderson <anderson@freebsd.org> (from Fri, 11 May 2007 07:42:35 -0500): > About a year ago, I posted[1] a patch to 6-STABLE that added a fancy rc > startup style similar to linux, with the [OK], [FAILED], etc printouts. > That patch had serious bit rot and other issues, and so I've now > revamped it to work on -CURRENT, with a more refined usage, and > defaults to off. I think it is better suited in the rc mailinglist. > I'd rather stay away from a massive bikeshedding, so let me summarize: AFAIR the outcome of the last discussion was, that it is ok as long as the default is to keep the current way of displaying things (which is what your patch does). So if there are no technical issues with the patch, it should be ok to commit them. > I'd like to here feedback, and would love to see this go in to the Do you have a screenshot? People love screenshots and you may get some voices like "I want to have this!" from people which fear to install a patch or from those which don't have time to patch.
