 Hi,
Sadly, I don't believe you to be technically astute in that you seem to hav=
e issues with everything that work 'out of the box' in FreeBSD.=C2=A0 I lov=
e FreeBSD for exactly what it is:=C2=A0 highly stable, highly functional, p=
roperly engineered, with very few 'issues' especially all the ones that you=
 describe as 'BAD'.=C2=A0 It's strange that Apple, NetApp, Isilon, Sony, et=
c who I consider some pretty technically astute corporations, decided to go=
 in the direction of FreeBSD, due to the reasons I list above, and don't ha=
ve these same issues.=C2=A0 I believe you need to troubleshoot what YOU are=
 doing wrong.=C2=A0 Or, again, please do uninstall FreeBSD because you seem=
 to be a troll and Linux fanboy.

I make my living contracting out on CentOS and RHEL.=C2=A0 Quite frankly, t=
hey are pathetic.=C2=A0 I'm happy they are so pathetic in that if it was Fr=
eeBSD, it would probably take me half the time to build, configure, deploy =
and get various apps working.=C2=A0 Also, the ongoing patching of everythin=

=C2=A0 Windows, 400+?=C2=A0 FreeBSD < 20.=C2=A0=20

Oh, let me guess, so few bugs because 'no one uses it'?=C2=A0 Yeah, heard t=
hat before.
Apologies to the list, but this guy's has been taking up serious bandwidth =
for the last two weeks on non-existent issues.=C2=A0 He makes a statement a=
bout something not working and 5-10 respond 'works for me'.=C2=A0 That's th=
e pattern of a troll.=C2=A0 I urge everyone to please stop responding unles=
s he can come up with specific details on how he built things, what he did,=

ems unless there's a scar on his head or a lobotomy puncture near his eye.

 Hi,

does any of the Firefox versions that can be installed with pkg
actually work?=C2=A0 Firefix continues to freeze, crash, being unable to
remember its settings, to not show up at all when starting it other
than in the process list, and it usually can't be killed even with
kill -9.

If Firefox is incompatible with FreeBSD, what's the alternative?

On the other hand, in [t]csh (FreeBSD standard, right?:-) ' does *not*
quote !, i.e. you *have* to use \:

pluto 1> echo '!11'
11: Event not found.
pluto 2> echo \!11
!11

So I guess using \ could at least be considered "safer" or "more
portable"...
