X is X - they don't make a special one for BSD! you can install a different window manager (besides twm). you have a menu, just click your left button outside a window. to run a program, just enter it's name (assuming it's in PATH) followed by an ampersand - in an xterm window (ie, run_me &). > And one last one...

FTP the files/dirs in ./ports that you want into /usr/ports and the sources in ./distfiles to /usr/ports/distfiles. (ftp.cdrom.com, directory /pub/FreeBSD -- binary mode!) 3. download ./ports/INDEX & ./ports/Makefile into /usr/ports. 4. now go into /usr/ports/Makefile & /usr/ports/PORTGROUP/Makefile and comment out ports you're not installing. then comment out the FTP site in /usr/ports/PORTGROUP/PORT/Makefile. (Makefiles may require hacking!) 5. now go to /usr/ports and type "make install" and everything should go OK. ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: > Thank you again and many happy returns or something... ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sleep: a sign a caffeine deprivation ... http://www.anchorage.net/~un_x -------------------------------------------------------------------------
