I normally recompile it after X is installed because it works a lot better for me in its own X window using the fonts in /usr/libdata/doscmd/fonts/ It works good enough for me to run the old topspeed C v3 compiler that creates 16 bit 8086 code. Good for embedded 80186 stuff. :-) John -- John Hay -- John.Hay@icomtek.csir.co.za / jhay@FreeBSD.org
