pine, pico and pilot deb's are included in woody. you'll notice that the version numbers have an 'L' at the end of them. that signifies (i believe) that they are not an unmodified binary and allows debian to distribute the pine binaries that they want to and still comply with the license. heyzeus(larry)$ apt-cache search pine pico - Easy-to-use text editor found in Pine. pine - An e-mail reader with MIME and IMAP support. pilot - simple file system browser in the style of the Pine Composer. pine-docs - Getting started with email using Pine heyzeus(larry)$ apt-cache show pine | grep Version Version: 4.21L-0.3 adam.
