Has the suckless community considered starting an operating system from
scratch?
Linux/BSD etc suck by default as they are evolutions of software from
the 1970s and have all the legacy baggage that comes with that. Even
Plan 9 dates back to the 1980s.

I do agree the main problem with Linux Distributions is the GNU stuff.

Hi,
I use a version of Vim compiled with X11 support. When running vim

This doesn't work for me under st. I tried using "TERM=xterm vim" but
that didn't help.

I'm running surf under dwm. I accidently clicked it's border and *womph* it
disapeared! I ran surf from a terminal so I could see any output and repeated
the click, it did the same thing saying there was a segmentation fault.
Other windows in dwm don't seem to have the same problem; if I clic

First stali release is nearly ready? O_o
Hi all,
I just made a small fix to the surf man page which adds a few missing
keys. The go to next/previous search result is quite important, I
didn't release it existed till I noticed in the config.h some while
after first using surf, I was thinking about writing the functions
myself :o.
