At least I have the manpages for it and I can see how it seems to create its filesystem and stream packages. Most probably I will not go for stream package compatibility with SysV because I think it's a proprietary binary format (have to take a look at it, there was never any need to do that before). Sadly, it has its bad points in the sense that _all_ files need to be specified, but at least it is fairly standard (as far as the word standard means anything in the UNIX world :) /Marino ---------------------------------- Marino Ladavac Date: 15-Apr-98 Time: 19:22:46 ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
