As far as I can tell, If someone cannot open 3 terminals, One for the handbook, one for LINT, and one to cp GENERIC whatever and edit whatever, I think a refer all to LINT or Handbook or man *(*) is probably appropriate. I disagree that you have to change the OS for new users, you have to change new users for the OS. The only idea that seemed possible in reading this (plus the other) string was something like `vikernel' that could use an editor which would use a configuration database that would check the configuration for missing required `options' as well as typographical errors, a spell checker of sorts, as part of the write command. That's my $.7346 :-) _______________________________________ |\ /| | \ kevin_eliuk@sunshine.net / | My manhood shouldn't be | \ Kevin G.
