Only reason I uttered my idea of: cc -> gcc And have that behaviour under a knob is that when I install other C compilers and they make a cc -> whatevercc in /usr/local/bin or something it will pick that cc up without mangling PATH back and forth. Not a big deal if it's there or not, just eases work a bit. But this knob would be on by default to make the symlinks. -- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven/Asmodai asmodai@[wxs.nl|freebsd.org|xmach.org] Documentation nutter/C-rated Coder, finger asmodai@ninth-circle.dnsalias.net http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/ Any road leads to the end of the world...
