I think the thread has gone beyond productive discsussion at this point. If people feel this topic is important to discuss further, then I suggest that new newsgroup comp.sys.next.x be started to discuss these issues. However don't debate that here. I have gotten probably all the useful information out of this dicussion at this point, and I suspect everyone else too. It would be good if people got back to being helpful here, whether it is programming tips, system administration stuff, or to share cool hacks. I'd like to remind people when they post that they investigate thoroughly what they claim to be facts: I have made that mistake in the past, and it results in more noise being produced. This includes reading the man page, trying out commands, or even finding out what status a person has within an organization. If you feel you or an issue has been wronged, or mis-represented in a posting, I suggest that you discuss it directly with the author of the posting via e-mail. If the author thinks it is worth posting a correction s/he will. This will reduce the number of duplicate postings in response to an article. pasc -- Pascal Chesnais, Research Specialist, Electronic Publishing Group Media Laboratory, E15-348, 20 Ames Street, Cambridge, Ma, 02139 (617) 253-0311 email: lacsap@plethora.media.mit.edu (NeXT)

Hear Hear! I know it probably won't do much good, but I SECOND THE MOTION!
Let's get back to nifty NeXT specific discussions and route the X/NeXTstep
discussions to alt.religion.window-fanatics!
My 2 cents.
