Lucky, Thanks for this great submission. I've gone ahead and committed it to the handbook (will take a few hours to start popping up on web sites); the only change I had to make was that the $FreeBSD$ tag in the sample template lasting caused CVS to get unhappy; I've worked around it by stuffing a <!-- --> in it to disrupt CVS's detection of the tag. I'm not sure what the best approach to solving that problem is -- keeping the tag in the template will help keep the documentation in sync. I'm sure there's a better solution, and perhaps a doc committer can pick up that detail for me :-). Thanks again, Robert N M Watson FreeBSD Core Team, TrustedBSD Projects robert@fledge.watson.org Network Associates Laboratories
