And remember, if something trivial is missing I can always add it. All the hard stuff has already been done ( except, perhaps, adding stream support ). I can think of a few things already, like adding support for creating file holes for nul data on copy or forking for subdirectories ( to a certain degree, anyway ) to maximize NFS bandwidth. -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
