Hi Chuck and all!
Yes this was a mistory but now that mistory is history!!! Now making it
work like that on my slackware 7.0/7.1 system! I think I know what's
happening. I believe that the .lessrc and .less files are not getting
sourced on login. Heck they weren't even in root's home directory. So I
am going to see if I can't get the slack7.1 upgrade package to fix
this. Heh! Maybe!
