a bug in which certain combinations of arguments produced unexpected results
such as `-dX' (now properly produces debugging and X11), `-XS' (now properly
produces X11 in secure mode), `-df-' (enables debugging when reading a
script from standard-input, etc. Multi-word variations such as `-d -X',
`-X -S', `-d -f-', `-d -f -', etc. also work as expected. Also tested were
variations in argument order, which are now working as expected.

Still to come is the actual processing of selections (performing the

missing from the graph, but it also unfortunately forces yet another bug
in graphviz dot(1) to appear. When edge labels are enabled (using '\T')
with this many edges, dot(1) will do bad things in init_rank() and often
crash. So while we're here, let's disable edge labels for the include-

X11 side of things from bleeding into Xdialog(1) stderr output). It should
be duely noted that such errors are not a by-product of anything in the
Xdialog(1) utility or API, but optional libraries that it can link against
(such as Gtk1 versus Gtk2; if you compile xdialog from ports against Gtk2
AND misconfigure your fonts or generally make Gtk2 unhappy, these warning
messages can bleed into the captured stderr -- that is we we sanitize!).

accessing files from various types of media nice and abstracted away from
the wet-work involved in preparing, validating, and initializing those
types of media. This will be used for the package management system module
and other modules that need access to files and want to allow the user to
decide where those files come from (either in a scripted fashion, prompted
fashion, or any combination thereof).
Heavily inspired by sysinstall and even uses the same reserved words so
that scripts are portable. Coded over months, tested continuously through-
out, and reviewed several times.
Some notes about the changes:
- Move network-setting acquisition/validation routines to media/tcpip.subr
- The options screen from sysinstall has been converted to a dialog menu
- The "UFS" media choice is renamed to "Directory" to reflect how sysinstall
treats the choice and a new [true] "UFS" media choice has been added that
acts on real UFS partitions (such as external disks with disklabels).
- Many more help files have been resurrected from sysinstall (I noticed that
some of the content seems a bit dated; I gave them a once-over but they
could really use an update).
- A total of 10 media choices are presented (via mediaGetType) including:
CD/DVD, FTP, FTP Passive, HTTP Proxy, Directory, NFS, DOS, UFS, Floppy, USB
- Novel struct/device management layer for managing the issue of passing
more information than can comfortably fit in an argument list.

which was to self-initialize during the first function-call. This didn't work
so well because the first call was may or may-not be within a sub-shell
(which prevented proper setup of the pass-thru file descriptor, resulting in
dialogs that would not display).

stable/9/usr.sbin/sysinstall/help/shortcuts.hlp (reproduced below):
If /usr/sbin/sysinstall is linked to another filename, say
`/usr/local/bin/configPackages', then the basename will be used
as an implicit command name.

problem with using a msgbox was one of truncation in the case of Xdialog(1)
and lack of screen real-estate (since the msgbox is not scrollable in X11
while a textbox is).
The textbox renders the text much better and is more appropriate for this
type of data display.

improve upon the system by giving the user a "Help" button instead of requiring
the user to press F1.
NOTE: In FreeBSD-9 and higher, dialog(1) does not support the F1 hook, so the
mechanism for providing help to the user had to be changed to a button.
This now means we can resurrect *.hlp files from usr.sbin/sysinstall/help/ as-
is and reusing them as-needed in bsdconfig (holding to the goal of losing as
little functionality from sysinstall as possible).

Finally, this will allow a clean import of sysutils/sysrc (sans sysrc.subr,

builtin is processed specially and thus the `: > file' syntax for example
will cause premature termination of the current shell on redirection-error.
The `true' builtin on the other-hand is not included in this special
processing (for compatibility reasons to satisfy legacy scripts programmed
for systems where `true' is not a builtin).
Change bare `: > file' syntax into `true > file' syntax to prevent premature
shell termination in the event of redirection-error.
NOTE: Instances of `: > file' that appear within a sub-shell have been left
unmodified as these will not cause premature termination of the main script.
