One more comparison. Why do we have the only one 'mknod' utility and why don't we have separate 'bmknod' (for block devices) and 'cmknod' (for character devices)?
Because mknod was first and did it all. > Do you fill the difference now?! I personally don't. Your proposal added confusion, if anything, because it proposed a bundle-up for only a few of these utilities. bj
