Hi,

I had been going through /usr/bin to see what I would need for a very
small installation and noticed that there are binaries
installed multiple times with different names of course.

My question now would be if symlinking wouldn't suffice ? From those
that I had not deleted I remember the following duplicates that most
likely are not all of those exist...

	Mail -> mail
	Mail -> mailx
	less -> more
	awk -> nawk
	nvi -> nview
	cksum -> sum
	reset -> tset
	nvi -> vi
	nvi -> view
