SIGIO is evil and should never be used. I tried using SIGIO for tty I/O many years ago and it was a total disaster - it used an unbelievable amount of cpu due to the signal overhead :-) I theoretically own the rights to BestWWWD if only I could find the piece of paper. It shouldn't be an issue any longer with Best/Verio, I'll see what can be done. -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
