The userland stuff is better than the BSDi code (IMHO), the kernel code hasn't stabilised yet and thus I'm waiting a little. Committing it involves changing the size of the proc struct, which will generate a deluge of clueless 'why does my ps not work now' questions, so I want to wait until we're sure no more changes have to be made 8) > Next I'm going to try and get one of my old c-compilers to run (It is a > latice C, used for NCR 2127 POS systems user exits).
