Re: Reading docs.
Wow! This is fantastic!
I've been a Linux user for about four and a half years now, and a Debian
user for about one and a half, and somehow I've missed dwww all the way
through.
Thanks so much for pointing it out! I just installed it, and it works
_great_ I'm sure I'll be using it much now.
Boy, Debian may look a little rough at first glance, but it's a very
solid, cohesive operating environment when you digg a little deeper.
Cheers,
Ben
