Other than that, it doesn't look too bad. I don't know if you need the space with <prompt> either. I know technically the space *is* included in the prompt, but there's a space after the normal root prompt as well which isn't included in the &prompt.root entity: freebsd.dtd:<!ENTITY prompt.root "<prompt>#</prompt>"> But I'm getting picky now. :-) -- Ben Smithurst / ben@FreeBSD.org / PGP: 0x99392F7D FreeBSD Documentation Project / To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
