A minor, even trivial, perhaps pointless issue---but I'm curious: /etc/skel/.profile includes the line export PATH HOME TERM
This appears to be unnecessary; login(1) places all three into the environment. Simple testing with ksh and sh reveal no changes resulting from the removal of this line. A bit of archive searching makes it looks like this hasn't been asked, googling resulted in no help, and a quick glance at cvs shows this was in the initial import. Is there a reason this is here? (I'm not suggesting there's necessarily a reason to remove it.) Is this used by other shells in ports, or by any sh in the works? Just noticed it, got curious, and decided to waste some time figuring it out---hope I haven't wasted too much of yours. ;-) Thanks, CDJ -- Christian Jones [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.aleph0.com/~chjones
