The number of people who are interested in text-based configuration support is very limited. Giving a few thousand SLED users a good user experience has higher priority for me than implementing something that a few users that hang out on the forum wants. I hope you can respect that. There's nothing that stops someone else from implementing some text-based storage of compiz options. If the dbus dependency is alright, then it shouldn't take much more than an hour or two to write a simple daemon that keeps a text file in sync with all options exported by compiz. - David _______________________________________________ compiz mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/compiz
