Transparency is done via the application, not the window manager. You have to either use Eterm or aterm. aterm is recommended as it has a smaller footprint, however Eterm is a little bit more configurable (borderless mode... the only way to go borderless with aterm is to use bblaunch or bbappconf). > Also, can someone recommend a good (i.e. compact and solid) text editor for bb? > vi, jed, joe, emacs, xemacs, nedit, pico... any number of editors work just fine, you should investigate a bunch of them, then choose the one that works best for you. These aren't exactly blackbox specific questions. :) DC -- Derek Cunningham [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Human beings act intelligently only after they have exhausted the alternatives" -- Abba Eban Registered Linux User Number 195825
