It's probably impossible with Xfree86 size to beat this as a whole. BUT, perhaps this is a neat idea to make a FreeBSD demo disk, only using the libdialog instead. Or, to make it a "2,88 Mbyte Web Challenge" for free Unices. :-) I mean it. Such a demo disk would be very helpful for those, who want FreeBSD give a try.
