BLFS has been my guide and mentor for quite a few years now - that 'broad church' is just one of the things that makes it so good. When working on a multi-file project I find I want a tabbed editor, and particularly one where each file can have a different syntax highlight. But enough justifcation - we'll see if there is any feedback from the userbase - since your kind enough to include it. > I'll go ahead and commit the change as soon as you can validate the > md5sum for me. Your value is right - I trusted the author's site, but he hadn't updated it from 1.0. So: 5ffabef54fc83f5e540e08e23e3f5671 bluefish-1.0.1.tar.bz2 I have to admit that my SBU timing is probably off becuase of bad record keeping when I built this system and I have more memory now - I'll rebuild binutils to get a new reference, but go with your timing for now.
