As a further question on that = point, where would you say would be the
best place to = persist that command?

As far as I'm = aware, my likely choices would be one of (in order = of
execution):

/rc/bin/te= rmrc
/rc/bin/termrc.local
/cfg/$sysname/te= rmrc

I generally avoid = touching termrc, put site-specific stuff for all machines on the network = in termrc.local, and put machine-specific stuff in /cfg/$sysname/termrc = (e.g. one machine supports dma but another does = not.)

"Cpurc" can be read for "termrc" above. =

( = by the way, what to do when I find errors in the man pages? .e.g., = in
the interest of correcting them upstream = )

See = patch(1).
