I'm currently battling to keep the Minimal InstallCD below 50MB, so every little bit counts. Currently, I am at 52MB, so adding 140KB to the LiveCD just means that I have to find 140KB somewhere else. > | > Livecd people: you're exempt, although I suggest you reconsider -- > | > wouldn't it be nice if *every* editor highlighted CFLAGS="-02" in > | > red so that the user could see that they'd screwed up? :) > | > | Heh...

Someone should fix that. That is definitely not my fight. I am 100% willing to drop nano like a bad habit in favor for vim on the stages, but I am not willing to argue it. If you can convince people that the default editor should be vim, I'll back you, but I am definitely not going to lead that flame-fest. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead/QA Manager Games - Developer Gentoo Linux
