I have udes bb fot over a year now.  I have never had a problem with the
menu until now.  I am trying to launch a program called 'ebench'.
menu entry looks like this:
[exec]    (eBench)    {ebench}

if I type ebench in an xterm, the progie fires up.
if I switch out of x, into console, the program works.

when I click on the menu item in bb, nothing happens.  I subsituted
{ebench} with kedit, and voila~, it works.

I tried substituting {ebench} with {xterm -e ebench} just to get an
error message if nothing else.  But I got the following:
xterm: Can't execvp ebench

what the heck does that mean?

I am wondering if it has something to do with the enviroment variables
that ebench needs to run.  $EIFFEL4, $PLATFORM both need to be exported.

both my .bashrc and .bash_profile contain the following 2 lines:
export  EIFFEL4=/usr/local/Eiffel45
export  PLATFORM=linux-glibc2.1

Has anyone had a similar problem before???
