Michael correctly parsed and evaluated the expression the first time. I spent 6.25 lines describing a transparent desktop and its use for a reason. I realize that English isn't an unambiguous grammar, but do you really think I'd be asking if remote X connections are possible? BTW, he prefers KDE so it's not Nautilus displaying the desktop. I'm sure that if he can get just Kicker (or whatever it's called now), he can live without the icons. -- Stuart Jansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> #define FALSE 0 /* This is the naked Truth */ #define TRUE 1 /* and this is the Light */ -- mailto.c ____________________ BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ ___________________________________________________________________ List Info: http://phantom.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/uug-list
