You need one of two things: 1) The terminal being a module 2) Using something like Evoak on the E17 desktop. Since I think (2) isnt going to happen anytime soon, I'll tell you a bit about (1). The terminal needs to be an evas smart object or a complete module that renders everything on the desktop. Currently, Enterminus can do that (its a smart object so you can stick it in a module and it works) but its terminal emulation code still needs a good amount of work. -- Hisham Mardam Bey MSc (Computer Science) http://hisham.cc/ +9613609386 Codito Ergo Sum (I Code Therefore I Am) ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
