Sounds like a reasonable guess, but I don't reboot every day--I don't think I rebooted since I installed geany--my uptime says I've been up 11 days, 20:57--well, I don't think I installed geany that long ago, but maybe I did. Still, (something for me to learn), I don't think when I start something from konsole or from Command Run that KDE does anything tricky with it. Someday it will all become clear--nothing I'm worried about for now! ;-) Randy Kramer _______________________________________________ Geany mailing list [email protected] http://lists.uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany
