I think what he's talking about is that, when 'Thunar --daemon' is running already, and you run a normal Thunar instance, instead of starting a new process, it calls the daemon via the dbus interface to open a new window, and then quits. From the perspective of sitting at the terminal, it just looks like the Thunar started from the terminal has forked into the background. -brian -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFstGl6XyW6VEeAnsRAw+JAJwItBOjUn6o7IiK0uydo+dUhjCsHQCfYyki uS1H6KFnacdq9aP6E/b16+I= =e4F+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Thunar-dev mailing list Thunar-dev@xfce.org http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev
