isn;'t there some kind of standard for these things ? Over in FreeBSD land /proc has been depracated for a couple of years and no longer appears by default. I dont ever look at this part of the kernel, but I wwas under the imppression there was a rough set of standardised calls to replace all this on Unix/BSD at least. So we could use /proc on Linux/Plan9 style things and the aalternative on Unix/BSD system maybe ? -pete.[off to rummage in manuals] _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnustep mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnustep
