Sender: owner-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have used Linux's make config, and i don't like it much. Frankly, it is nicer to sit in emacs with LINT on the screen and copy stuff to my own config... LINT generally contains enough comments to figure out what i need and don't... unlike make config. But to contribute something new to the discussion, though it is something very small, please provide a bunch of config files, but please make sure that all of the config files have stuff in the same order, so they can be diff'ed. (NB: this was not true of LINT and GENERIC the last time i cared). -mark
