- make own version of getopt - configure scripts? I tried this, but it just bloated the sourcecode just to detect gcc/cc and architecture stuff. For now I think the makefiles are working ok. - Have architecture-specific default sysinfo output? That way archs like m68k that have extra info [like Amiga, Atari, Mac] can display this w/o adding hacks to make it look proper on archs w/o such info [ix86] - fix the Banner/Classic mode options to not be specific to one or the other. - suggested by Edward Betts <edward@hairnet.demon.co.uk> > One of the monitors on my linux box is an old ibm monochrome display.

[this is possible. Don't have time to code it right now however.. would want some-sort of override switch to overcome it too] - see the ./libsysinfo directory for sysinfo stuff
