Are you sure openbox is aware of the change ? (Did you restart it ? Does it react immediately on newly added key combinations ?) > Yes, the $PATH is set in my .bashrc... > Wait.. Is this why I can start them in a terminal, but openbox can't? Possibly. It depends on when and by what entity the openbox window manager was started and whether it uses PATH to find commands. If the starter was some kind of shell, then it probably has forwarded its own PATH variable to openbox. If it was something more fancy, then behavior depends on the mood of its developers. You could put a script into /usr/bin (where it will be found, i hope), let it print the PATH to a file, bind it to a key combination, and look what it writes into the file: #!/bin/sh echo "$PATH" >/tmp/my_openbox_test_for_PATH But if PATH was to blame, then an absolute program path should have helped. If it came into effect, that is. Have a nice day :) Thomas
