so /sw would basically be the same as /opt? i may have been mislead (?mislead myself?) when i was looking around. a lot of the files/directories (can't tell w/o color...) looked just like the old mac stuff i'm used to. OS X was pretty kewl during the three minutes or so that i played with it. just wondering : can you move the wharf around? can you make the wharf icons stay the same size? last i heard, jobs came down pretty hard on the people trying to make a theming app for aqua. has he backed down? is OS X what became of (that super-interoperability platform that starts with an "r", running on the machUnix kernel that i was really into a couple of years ago but surprisingly can't remember the name...)?
