Hi there Theo It's around 50 years since I lived anywhere the English language was used with any degree of universality and so I don't keep up with regular anglophonic catchphrases and jargon. Ergo "whooshed" eluded me until I looked it up! And for that I apologize. However, what I could infer from your posting headers was that you were using a UNIX/BSD/LINUX/POSIX type operating system, and most probably one of the BSD flavours. And I was simply attempting to elicit some feedback on your satisfaction with the operating system distribution you were using. I am currently using GNU-Linux -- the 14.2 64bit Slackware Distribution -- and there are more than a few things that annoy me about it (mostly the change to 64 bit) and the inability of the latest Opera browser to handle all web traffic, forcing me to use a combination of Firefox, Mozilla and Seamonkey to perform certain tasks. (I hate KDE with a passion, but the latest Opera version I tried had neither "Notes" nor "Speed Dial" and so it was dumped forthwith,) So I was thinking I might go back to 32 bit, or try another distribution. And so I was looking for your comments on NetBSD Nothing heavy -- Davey Crockett says Proudly Fly Your Flag http://inconnu.freeshell.org/Sig/csa.jpg http://inconnu.freeshell.org/Sig/whiteDragon.png http://inconnu.freeshell.org/Sig/pt.png |

However, what I could infer from your posting headers was that you were using a UNIX/BSD/LINUX/POSIX type operating system, and most probably one of the BSD flavours. Oh, duh. I should have figured that out. My excuse is the context, I was not expecting computer related questions in rbr.

And so I was looking for your comments on NetBSD So I probably can't offer much. I used Slack for a box that served my own domain (heise.nu) for some 15 years, but keeping up the system bacame more work than fun. So I retired it last year, and signed up for a shell account on panix.com. I've used Unix or Linux of some flavor since about 1990, but never as a personal computing platform--strictly shell and command line. My server ran mail, news, and www, and that was about it. -- Ted Heise Bloomington, IN, USA |

Thanks for your input. Your comment on your shell account is interesting because personally I am finding myself using my shell on SDF (Systems Dimensions Fortress - $1 for a lifetime membership) much more frequently these days, A long time ago I settled on PINE and slrn for mail and news. One feature I like is that slrn can save posts to my IMAP folder structure, and PINE can access everything. With lots of work travel, I was frustrated with fragmented access to news and e-mail (plus I wanted the ability to control my own spam filters), so I set up my server to have one news spool (and mail archive) I could access from anywhere. I also thought learning Linix system administration would be fun--and it was, for quite a few years. Today I still prefer the command line for many things. On top of that, the local *.panix groups are full of interesting and clever people. So I persist. -- Ted Heise Bloomington, IN, USA |
