That thread already evolved beyond the way i'd normally enter it for any discussion, but: As Jordan K.

That is, you _must_ add a compile-time option then that can avoid the entire color mess, and whoever is doing it is responsible to add the required stuff to /usr/src/release/Makefile etc. and to ensure (by test-compiling it!) the fixit floppy will still fit. (There are only a few bytes left now, even too few to fit a camcontrol(8) into it, as badly as we normally would need it.) We've already handled Tcl and Perl extensions to vi(1) in about the same way, since they would bloat vi beyond recognition otherwise. -- cheers, J"org .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .
