I use Debian. Reason why? In the late 90's, I asked some savvy linux users which one I should get for my laptop, and they told me Debian, because it was the most difficult to install, and if I could install it, I'd impress the heck out of rest of the geeks who couldn't Smilie

PENN-INSTALL(1) 					      General Commands Manual						   PENN-INSTALL(1)

NAME
penn-install - installer for the pennmush flavor mush server SYNOPSIS
penn-install [OPTION] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the penn-install command. It was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. penn-install is a program that installs the pennmush server in the user directory from which it is ran. It provides all necessary data and configuration files for each user account it is setup for, as well as the restart script needed to initiate an instance of the pennmush server process. penn-install itself should only be run once per user to install the necessary files and links. All updating of the pennmush server should be done on a global level by the system administrator. OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. -h, --help display this help and exit -v, --version output version information and exit AUTHOR
This manual page was written by Ervin Hearn III <noltar@korongil.net>, for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others). SEE ALSO
