Hi,
* Thus spake Eric Anderson (anderson at centtech.com):
> I've made a patch to /etc/rc.subr that makes the startup/shutdown rc
> scripting look similar to other OS's (many different linux distros,
> HP-UX, etc), but without color.

> The patch shouldn't break anything, and is only enabled if you have this
> in your /etc/rc.conf:
>
> rc_fancy="YES"
>
> Several of the /etc/rc.d/* scripts send output to stdout, so that could
> be cleaned up a bit if needed, but for now I tried to keep the patch as
> minimal as possible.

> This is still a first pass, so please give feedback.
A short try on my notebook shows some errors.
I don't want to let this email getting too big, so I put the "dmesg -a"
output online. http://generic.0xfce3.net/dmesg-fancy.txt
BTW, the patch applied cleanly.
best regards,
Gordon
