Hi Gary, You're right, bootstrap is not pretty. It has grown mostly by accretion. It is used in many projects, so as you can imagine, I'd like to minimize the number of changes that cause disruption. However, I'd welcome improvements, especially if you can keep them bite-sized -- contrast with your 12-item message ;-) [if no one beats me to it, I'll find time for that tomorrow] FYI, here are some of the bootstrap-using projects that I tend. They tend to use the latest version. coreutils diffutils grep gzip idutils parted
