Thanks Derek, your suggested solution worked perfectly. HOWEVER... curse my luck, I then went to the Fluxbox homepage in search of more themes to download. And of course, there's a patch, released 3 days ago, that does exactly what I was looking for. Simply bring up the menu, select option to save current desktop configuration, et voila. I'll try it out next week! :-) Thanks again, Richard PS Sylpheed is on my list of apps to try out. Rox? Sounds interesting, I haven't yet found a file manager I'm fully happy with so I'll certainly give it a try. *********************************************************************** This e-mail and its attachments are intended for the above named recipient(s) only and are confidential and may be privileged.
