A while ago I was reviewing the word use in comments, the docs, and manual pages. As I was reading through it the filesystem and file system thing jumped at my face. It looked ugly and kinda unprofessional to me. So I began to change it. A grep over our src/ and doc/ tree's showed that filesystem was used much more than file system. So I used that. Later a few committers pointed out that it didn't look good, and that file system as two words seemed more proper. Since today I wanted to do some committing anyways, this seemed like an 'ok' start ;) Take care, -- Tom (Darklogik) Rhodes www.FreeBSD.org -The Power To Serve www.Pittgoth.com -Pittgoth Discussion Portal trhodes@{Pittgoth.com, FreeBSD.org} PGP key by www: http://www.pittgoth.com/~darklogik/darklogik.key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
