Differences in philosophies there. The Unix Philosophy for some ~30 or so years. Here's a couple that apply directly to this. * Small is beautiful Small functional programs are readily understood, applied, and reused, and there is not as much complexity amongst which bugs can hide. * Make each program do one thing well Multiple useful programs can then be composed together to perform more complex functions. Thus a while back I made asspr to be used with ASSP :) A small program in C that has one job. To provide some reports on ASSP's activity. http://www.obsidian-studios.com/html/software.jsp?software=asspr > Your scripts rely on a very actively developed piece of software staying > the same. In all fairness in ASSP's history it has normally had much longer release cycles than present. Granted considerable less features and etc. Likely some bugs as well that weren't addressed. Either way it's a change in the projects past and present. -- William L. Thomson Jr. Gentoo/Java
