Although I never use netscape I'd find this utility useful for "killing other programs" as your description said. Kind of as a simple shortcut for killall -9 . Of course I'm really able to live without this app, (hence no need to shoot me down for supporting "horrible archive bloat" ;-)) but I would definitely give it a try if you decided to package it. cheers, Yven -- Yven Johannes Leist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.leist.beldesign.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
