It will work just fine without /var. I believe it just puts a temporary recovery file there that you may want to delete in any case. I wouldn't mind vi and usually need a man page reminder for ed but I would prefer the space used for something that hasn't an alternative, like vnconfig. I praise you OpenBSD for having such a good single user and well managed base and overall userland. Knocks seven shades of #@!% out of Linux userland in this regard in any case. -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
