Okay I will bite, Why? If you have a small dselect then the first thing to be installed would be the larger dselect. Now perhaps two different programs with different roles would be a good idea, but what would they be more specificaly? Here is an idea that seems to have been hinted at indirectly by a number of posts and that is a configuration aide for newbies. It would present them with a list of packages and tell them were the config files are and direct them to the /usr/doc/package files, etc.. I donno. Jason
