DOESN'T HAVE TO BE MAINTAINED AND EXTENDED BY THE FREEBSD TEAM. And the Tcl/Tk combination it uses is out of beta. Honestly, Jordan, I know you don't like the tk interface... but it works and solves the problem and you can't do everything yourself. Even if you *are* a Perl script on uppers. FreeBSD doesn't need Yet Another User Interface API That Nobody Else Uses.
