Leonardo, I've NEVER got any of the code for FREE, I've always paid

for it by buying CDs, unlike you who might have done an FTP install,

you're a cheap-skate aren't you.

Go buy yourself a CD set, contribute to the OpenBSD foundation, or

better still, since you are talking about flying pigs, go code up a

good application in C for OpenBSD or enhance an existing one.
