Content-Type: text/plain Date: Tue, 22 Jul 1997 13:36:00 PDT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I've just installed FreeBSD 2.2.2 release and it seems a bit weird. I'm an ex-linux user who is tired of all the bugs and all the crashes of linux and i've looked for sanctuary in the rock-stable freebsd. I must admit that so far,I'm totally confused since almost nothing is pre-set in freebsd but so far I'm handling it with mans,the handbook, mailing list archives and stuff.But i searched for gpm,the good old utility that allows cut and paste in character terminals but i found nothing except from the fact that it's supported in freebsd-2.2.How do I set up and use gpm or whatever freebsd has for that purpose? Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated.Thanks! ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
