Well, for no other reason than I wanted it to be prettier than what xmessage can do. (or at least I haven't seen xmessage do anything pretty before and it couldn't last time I'd messed with it) Also, there would be a delay in bringing up xmessage after the stroke was completed. Impatient people (like myself) might think it didn't 'take' and try again. That's actually the reason I wanted to do this in the first place, because I perform the stroke for bringing up netscape, and then either have to go over to an xterm and perform a ps to see if it actually caught, or I wait a sec and then try again assuming I missed it, only to have two copies come up. And lord knows netscape under unix gets rude when there are two copies of it runnings at the same time for the same user... Anyway, unless there are objections to me messing with it at all, I'll see what I can come up with.
