The e-mail program, pine uses pico as an editor, so if you install pine it will probably just grab pico for you. I'm not sure though. When I installed, I just selected "install everything" and will uninstall un-needed stuff whenever I get time... I know, not the best way of doing things, but it gives me a chance to see what everything does. > I'm new to Free BSD, been running various Linux distributions for a > couple of years now.
