I think the ancient vendor versions are a lost cause. But BSD versions just need someone dedicated enough to fix all the UTF-8 problems and get it merged back in upstream. (There are a lot of things that just need elbow juice in the Open Source world. The problem is finding someone with free elbows.) (Done right, this could help fix ancient vendor problems, by getting proprietary Unix's to adopt BSD versions of tools.) -- David Starner - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Pointless website: http://dvdeug.dhis.org "I saw a daemon stare into my face, and an angel touch my breast; each one softly calls my name . . . the daemon scares me less." - "Disciple", Stuart Davis -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
