Thanks! It did! bbappMan now appears in my Icons list, and doesn't fuzz
up either my screen or slit. Thanks a bundle!

The source code is at:
http://bbtools.windsofstorm.net/sources/devel/bbappconf-0.0.1-peak3.tar.gz

and an unofficial Debian package can be found at:
http://research.soc.staffs.ac.uk/~james/download/bbappconf_0.0.1-peak3-1_i386.deb

I'd actually had the Debian package installed, so I had to search
through Google to find the source code -- which is buried in the bbtools
site, and never linked from their pages. It might be nice if someone --
perhaps the maintainers of the FAQ -- would inquire into getting
permission to host the source and Debian packages on their site, so that
this app won't get lost over time.
