Description Poul-Henning Kamp 2006-07-15 08:50:12 UTC
DESCRIPTION
     This is the old version of the config utility.  It understands the old
     autoconfiguration scheme used on the HP300, i386, DECstation, and deriva-
     tive platforms.  The new version of config is used with the SPARC plat-
     form.  Only the version of config applicable to the architecture that you
     are running will be installed on your machine.


This really needs to be updated with about 20 years or moved to a history
section somewhere.

  Comment out the first paragraph; while it tells the true (we're using
  the old BSD config(8) utility in FreeBSD), it does not look good.
