Sorry, but I must say, what is too much is too much! There is no reason gtar should be included when there is tar or star just for the reason of catering to Linux crowd. Solaris is Solaris, if they came over to Solaris then they better learn Solaris. Otherwise, they can stay with Linux and be "homey". If someone can't live without their GNU tools, soon enough they'll have the pkgadd tools and they can add whatever they need from Blastwave. Maybe we should rename OpenSolaris to "OpenSolinux" so that the Linux crowd would feel "more at home"? > Since approx. 1995 when bash became usable, things > did change and > it seems that there are people who like to see bash > everywhere. > Note that csh is just a nightmare compared to bash. I've been using tcsh since at least 1995 and possibly earlier, and even then it had loads and loads of features that still trod bash into the ground today. I don't know why you didn't know about it, but I can say it's not my fault... I didn't know you existed back then! :) This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
