Say I built the source code of Mplayer 0.60 with everything I need, what I must do in order the following combination works: pkg_add mplayer060.tgz and it will leave a record in /var/db/pkg so I could easily remove it as time goes by with del_pkg mplayer060 Share the wealth brothers :) Thanks. --uwi mAn _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.
