Many are not used on the typical installation, yet I rarely remove them unless there is a compelling reason -- things change over time. Hell -- if we're going to get rid of "bloat", let's get rid of grep and sed, since very few newbies understand regular expressions -- or the man pages -- few read them and they take up a _huge_ amount of space;) (Only my 2 bits) -- Jay To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
