/bin/perl? Would it do anything useful?
I've been gathering stuff for my own stripped-down distribution.
Question: is there an editor out there, either a vi or a pico
look-alike, written totally in perl? I guess I already have termcap
dependency (in telnet), so vi might be OK, but I want to be different
with this.
I just have what seem to be basic tools, plus the libs they need, and I
already have 4 MB of stuff. Hrm...
