Well, whatever they are, 'pt' is obscure, and a 'driver' can drive all sorts of things. 'gcc' is a driver for cc1, 'make' is a driver for $(CC), and the kernel has all sorts of drivers too. The name is nondescriptive and the term is used in too many contexts already. I like the "test-parallel" (or a similar) color better, and while I acknowledge that it's the painting of a bike shed, and my preference is not all that strong, it is one where users have stumbled over and complained. > If you want more details > on this, I think we should bring the discussion public. Sure. Cheers, Ralf
