Just seems >that there's no way they could ever be flexible enough to handle everyting. I agree with you, and hp's smit (or whatever the hell its called) is a good example of that. But lets face it, GUI's are not going away, ever. They are going to get even more GUI. Might as well get comforatble with the X toolkit. Which reminds me, I was in the middle of doing some system admin stuff when I thought "Man, it would be nice to have all my users and groups in listed in boxes and stuff." Maybe a character/curses front end to begin with. Would anyone think this was worthwhile? If I wanted a signature, which I don't, I would use this. -Tim
