* Ask Jordan. Some weeks ago he wanted me to write such a very beginner : * 2 hours for /dev/null, *sigh*, maybe I better had asked before doing * the work... I wish you'd asked me (the ports manager) before, I have put a large amount of work (measured in days if not weeks) to revitalize that section, and it is quite complete now (I think). * But maybe there is demand for something like a "life example" ? Yes, I'll see if I can put it in there, it can be quite useful. But before, can you please read the relevant section from the most up-to-date handbook (you can get to it from www.freebsd.org) and resubmit your "example"? You'll probably notice that there are quite a few things that need to be changed. :) (I took a look at your submission the first time I saw it, one of the reasons why I was so terse in the first mail was because I knew it needed a big rewrite to even be considered going in there.) Thanks! Satoshi
