Topic: alert: "vii" renamed to "vee"

Check out http://www.0x743.com/.vee/1177353923.20 … 45:23.html to see why!

NOTE - there has been no new functionality, so there is no pressing reason to change things around if you have a set up you like.

Please report any issues with "upgrading", I will be happy to assist.

Cheers.

That's awesome. I hope there wasn't a lot of effort in "porting" to FreeBSD tongue

... and then they said "I bet you can't make MINIX kernel panic!!!" And that's when I got mad

Congratulations.  That makes two members, as far as I know, who have had ports accepted, perlfan's vee and Maxlor's psearch.

Re: alert: "vii" renamed to "vee"

Funny you mention that.  The porter (http://people.freebsd.org/~sat/) said that he had to write a little sed command to take out a "linuxism" he found in the function declarations.  I asked him to let me know what needs to change so he doesn't have to do this - I'd rather have BSD-isms in there than linuxisms!

Cheers

Something like this,

http://wiki.freebsd.org/AvoidingLinuxisms

but of course it just means proper coding without hacks in it. But indeed a very nice script. Congratulations smile

Re: alert: "vii" renamed to "vee"

I added vee to google code - mainly to try it out as an alternative to SF.

I have a group, too, if you wish to join.

Cheers.
