The point here is for a user to still be able to go in-depth, if the user so chooses, but to make life easier when the user wants that. With your policy, you should go back to inserting instructions directly into the processor using In Circuit Equipment. The main argument around where I work, for not using unix, that is, is that it is text-based, and doesn't have an intuitive interface. To me, it seems perfectly logical. To them, it's cryptic. - Marius - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
