If there are people writing admin tools for FreeBSD, they could make a port of it, that depends on the other needed ports ... So we could remove tcl from the main source tree and finish the debate ;-)) Bring back in mind: KISS "Keep It Small and Simple" Generally it was a cool idea, to bring in the ports collection stuff into the main source tree, because it really saves a lot of time. But from the cosmetic sight of view I think it's doen't fit in the old "look and feel". With the old look and feel I mean the nice source tree, where you can browse through the sources with grep ... Now I have to unpack tcl first before I can browse the sources ?! Not so cool, this is a mis-feature ! Would be nice if the consens would be, to bmake or remove it. The main source tree should be "grep-browseable" by default without doing make extracts (*shudder*). -- andreas@klemm.gtn.com /\/\___ Wiechers & Partner Datentechnik GmbH Andreas Klemm ___/\/\/ Support Unix -- andreas.klemm@wup.de pgp p-key http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/~bal/pks-toplev.html >>> powered by <<< ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Printing/aps-491.tgz >>> FreeBSD <<<
