Yeah. Too bad it wasn't there when I first got it running this summer. :) Still, I can add that O'Reilly's "Mac OS X Panther for Unix Geeks" is a great book for all unix enthusiasts who want to know what's so great about OSX that Apple doesn't tell you. There are a whole lot more powerful command line utilities; a full complement of BSD utilities, in fact. Apple's site would have users do text file editing using a (sed && mv) combo, but Vim is the default vi editor. (But how is that really different than gentoo's use of the notepad-for-xterms clone, nano?) [*] Tim [*] <geek>Yes, yes. "Because nano is small." And yet, they still manage to include Vim on the gentoo install CD-ROM. If I'm sitting inside my chroot without access to vim to edit my /etc/make.conf, it's not too terribly difficult to <Alt-F2> and type `vim /mnt/gentoo/etc/make.conf`.</geek> _______________________________________________ RLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rlug.org/mailman/listinfo/rlug
