Is /bin/editor supposed to run in text mode or under X? If text mode: If I'm running a pure X system, am I going to have to install a useless text mode editor just to fill some depency? What if I am using MGR? I think we should leave this problem to the user. Applications can use /bin/ae as a fallback, even if ae isn't an essential package, and if that doesn't work, they're supposed to give a useful error message anyway. -- Please read <http://www.iki.fi/liw/mail-to-lasu.html> before mailing me.
