Howdy,

  I've recently instaled MacBSD 1.1 on my IIvx, ad I'm scrounging for
info on the net about ported programs.  I see a lot of references to

1) dt ("desktop")
2) hfs
3) procps

Especially "dt".   But nowhere does it ever say what these programs
actually do.  Someone please fill me in as I'm reluctant to install
them without an idea of their purpose.

Also, if anyone knows where I can find some actual MacBSD X11R6
(or even R5) binaries, please let me knw.  All the pointers I find
point to ghosts.


thanks,
brian
