I don't really have a problem with this. The first thing I look at during comparison is the name of the file. If it is a long file (long enough to "more" into multiple pages) that I know I haven't customized, I simply "q" for quit, "i" for install and continue. Scrolling isn't necessary and consequently doesn't take that much time. -- Jim Weeks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
