It's non-intuitive that it would have to write anything to disk when all I'm asking it to do is check the contents of some remote web sites.

I wonder if there shouldn't be a macports group so that regular users could be added to this group and no longer need to sudo. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vincent@vinc17.org> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
