   The BSD networking commands seem like a bit of a hodge-podge. While   
   the “route” command lets you modify the routing table, it doesn’t have   
   an option to just list the existing entries: you have to use an   
   entirely different command, “netstat”, for that.   
      
   Even the old Linux “route” command was better than that.
