Step 1 of eliminating the "games" distribution: Move binaries to /usr/bin;

update paths; and include everything in the "base" distribution. The "games" distribution being optional made sense when there were more games and we had small disks; but the "games-like" games were moved into the ports tree a dozen years ago and the remaining "utility-like" games occupy less than 0.001% of my laptop's small hard drive. Meanwhile every new user is confronted by the question "do you want games installed" when they they try to install FreeBSD. The next steps will be: 2. Removing punch card (bcd, ppt), phase-of-moon (pom), clock (grdc), and caesar cipher (caesar, rot13) utilities. I intend to keep fortune, factor, morse, number, primes, and random, since there is evidence that those are still being used. 3. Merging src/games into src/usr.bin. This change will not be MFCed.

Since I've committed this I've receieved roughly an equal amount of email thanking me for making this change and asking me to revert it. I've resisted making this change because new users tend to prefer less over more and these users are the least likely to know how to change the PAGER on their own.

Switch the default terminal emulation style to xterm for most platforms.

2009-11-13T05:54:55Z

Right now syscons(4) uses a cons25-style terminal emulator. The disadvantages of that are: - Little compatibility with embedded devices with serial interfaces. - Bad bandwidth efficiency, mainly because of the lack of scrolling regions. - A very hard transition path to support for modern character sets like UTF-8. Our terminal emulation library, libteken, has been supporting xterm-style terminal emulation for months, so flip the switch and make everyone use an xterm-style console driver. I still have to enable this on i386. Right now pc98 and i386 share the same /etc/ttys file. I'm not going to switch pc98, because it uses its own Kanji-capable cons25 emulator. IMPORTANT: What to do if things go wrong (i.e. graphical artifacts): - Run the application inside script(1), try to reduce the problem and send me the log file. - In the mean time, you can run `vidcontrol -T cons25' and `export TERM=cons25' so you can run applications the same way you did before. You can also build your kernel with `options TEKEN_CONS25' to make all virtual terminals use the cons25 emulator by default. Discussed on: current@
