Yeah that's the one! I got it working now thanks to that command, running the files randomly won't be much of a problem now. Thanks again :) Elijah On Wed, 2003-01-01 at 01:30, Jamin W. Collins wrote: On Tue, Dec 31, 2002 at 05:47:49PM +0900, Elijah wrote: I believe the command you are

This one time, at band camp, Elijah said: btw, I'm using gnome Elijah Gnome usually uses sawfish, except that Gnome2 seems to want to use metacity. Try to figure out which one you're using (ps ax will tell you what's running). Sawfish, at least in Woody, has an option in it's configuration

Thanks for those links :) I'll be reading them right away, I think I'll make some scripts in replacement for those commands. It was my plan before but I thought if there would be an easier command option to use, I guess there was none since I can't find any options in the mplayer manual. btw, I'm
