Description Rodney Gordon II 2002-01-25 05:36:57 UTC

As I sit here, ssh'ed to my shell server while Gentoo is building,
it sure would be nice to have a few more statically linked binaries
on the CD. To name a few: lynx, links, BitchX, epic4, and various
others (Terminal games, etc..)

But, at least, a web browser and a irc client sure would be nice ;)

The w3m webbrowser is excellent for textmode.

You can ssh out to another machine and do all this :)
