I'd been using blackbox on Red Hat. I have changed to SuSE 7.3. I have bb 6.2
running well and have been over the menu.
I'm wondering how to set up bb to start with certain programs
running--bbpager and some dockapps, mostly. I know how to do that on Red Hat
7.1 but haven't figured where to p
app they iconified.
Did the font in this message display illegibly in other folks' email
client or just in mine? I couldn't read it until I hit "reply."
And per the suggestion, just use the 2nd mouse button and go down to
"icons.

Picking up on some recent comments:
I prefer light text on a dark background *if* the values are really
light and dark and the colors contrast well. Jan Schaumann's "wheat"
foregroung is good on something like "darkslategrey." I use it myself.
But, of course, the user's browser is going to interp

Actually, while I "like" the skills to help, I meant to say that I
"lack" the skills to help. And I would like to see this feature
available.

Dave,
I have this item in my menu. It works:
[exec] (Edit Menu) {xterm -e vim .blackbox/menu}
--I use vim rather than vi, but that shouldn't make a difference. And
you can add options for color etc. And of course use the term of your
choice--

I have downloaded & installed bbconf; however, when I try to open it, it
crashes with a segmentation fault.
Can anyone help?

I had found a fetchmail daemon running yesterday and killed it.
Fetchpop is off my system.
If anyone has any idea why this happened, I'd like to hear it.

while, someone refers to Blackbox crashing or being
unstable. I must be doing something wrong ;-) because bb just ticks
along on my system and never gives me any problems. That's a major
reason I prefer it to, say Gnome. I sometimes have problems with apps,
usually email for some reason, but
t Window Maker recently, a more informed
look than my earlier one. Blackbox is really much better: cleaner and
leaner.

The ! comments the line out.
While you're at it, you can change colors and other items. I've found
that the color names in Emacs work fine, as in the "bsetroot" line above.

Even better, don't try my experiment; something might bust.
LICQ does work with Blackbox.

around, I use it mostly for synaesthesia.
Now, for my own naive question: Would someone explain the "slit" to

out yet.

working, but (maybe more important) I've learned more about BB and Linux.

I'm trying to arrive at a satisfactory e-mail client. I'm using RedHat 7.1
with Blackbox as the wm. I like KMail and it seems to run fine on bb.
Does anyone have any experience with this combination? Any hints or cautions?

ike Blackbox.
It offers good configurability and flexibility but doesn't load me up with
features that mean nothing to me.
Otherwise, I'd use Gnome or KDE.

A color change on the title bar might be neat too.
