Bloat costs

[Charles Hedrick]

Indeed.  I ported Kermit to Minix.  It took me several days to do.
On other versions of Unix you do it by typing "make", and maybe
fixing a few system dependencies.  The time was spent removing help
facilities and shortening text strings to get it to fit.  This is
not the way I want to spend my time (aside from being irked that
Kermit's nice user interface is being butchered in the process).
