i think the pico editor that comes with the pine4.01 package install is
screwed up.. almost every time i edit something using the pico that comes
with that package it inserts a (seemingly random) series of 'U' characters
at the top of the file, like so:

-----
ybox.yossman.net# uname -a
FreeBSD ybox.yossman.net 2.2.7-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE #0: Wed Jul 22 08:48:29 GMT 1998     root@builder
.cdrom.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC  i386
ybox.yossman.net# cat /etc/inetd.conf

[...etc...]

if i downgrade to pine3.96, the problem does not occur.  any ideas?
anyone heard of that before?

i admit i haven't checked the mailing list archives yet to see if someone
else has been having the problem, but i did check errata.. makes sense it
wouldn't be in errata though because it's not a problem (probably) with
the base 2.2.7-RELEASE.

thanks, talk to you guys later..
