Let's rephrase it: as nvi needs to link to perl, and we do not have a perl in the base since a loooong time, surely nobody was using the stock basesystem-nvi with the perl (and tcl) interpreter. As we also will not import perl/tcl into the basesystem again (at least not in the foreseable future), the code is useless for our basesystem. Whoever wants a vi with with such an interpreter, needs to compile one himself anyway and there are enough alternatives in the ports. Bye, Alexander. -- ** MAXIMUM TERMINALS ACTIVE.
