Yes, but it wasn't clear to me from the previous document what would happen with existing GNU utils in /usr/bin, prefixed with the g, it mostly spoke of no new g-prefixed utils.

From what I understood, these were going to be left where they are, and named as they are - I didn't see any specific mention of duplicating these same programs in /usr/gnu without the prefix, which is the point I'm making.

e.g.

   /usr/bin/gzcat should be hard linked to /usr/gnu/bin/zcat

Thanks,

Darren.

Not just "make sense."  That's actually the entire _point_ of having
/usr/gnu.
