I second this. This thread has become longer than the wmii source code nearly ;) And it is not really hard to conclude that translucent terminals are bad for your eyes. After a short phase of being enthusiastic about the look, you will concentrate on real work hopefully and then it just feels wrong. Translucent terminals were used at times to _mislead_ Windows or Mac people during the 90s because their environment didn't provide such "feature" (well for a good reason, but that didn't stop the Stockholm syndrome to develop). Having said this, I fully understand the metaphor of AIDS in this respect. The idea of translucent terminals spread like a genital desease. But anyhow, nothing too fancy to discuss in such a long thread. I have more important stuff to do. Cheers, Anselm
