In many instances, a 1 character change causes hundreds of lines of repository bloat due to the inefficiency of the RCS file format. I am going to back these (and the other that I can find) out. If somebody wants the spelling fixed, submit it to the package authors. Cheers, -Peter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
