Once that's done, if you have suggestions for improvements I'm sure that they would be interested. I'll be happy to work with you on adding useful bits to it in our tree as well. You can see what I'm importing at http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/basesrc/usr.bin/stat/ My reasons for choosing to import this version are the obvious benefits of working closely with the NetBSD folks, as well as the fact that it has a large number of features, compiles cleanly on our system (even with WARNS=2), etc. Doug -- "We have known freedom's price.
