why is it possible to do a "cat" o a directory in freebsd? and, if this
is intended (for whatever purpose, but i can't think of any
reasonable...), maybe others can verify that this crashes your xterm, if
you run this command form a xterm under X... actually, it changes your
character set (or whatever, i'm not much into how this works), but the
effect is that you can't use your terminal any more (in a normal way :)

hope i'm not missing smtg, and this really s a bug, and i'm posting to
the right lists...
feedback is appreciated, but please cc me, cause i'm not subscribed...

aloha,
ANdrei
