Ok. No csh install. When the *big* drive gets here I will have room
for; X,
the SGML stuff, WordPerfect and kernel .src. All I have to do is
decide if
I want KDE or Gnome. I guess I will get the e-Yahtzee game and roll
for it.
So, FreeBSD Documentation Project Primer for New Contributors
Chapter 3. SGML Primer
is where I am right now, more to read before I try anything anyway.
thanks -dutch
