I'm old fashioned. I use text based apps as much as possible. I'm using mutt and vim to compose this e-mail, for example. They're running under screen, which is running in an rxvt-unicode terminal under dwm. I could detach my screen session, exit rxvt-unicode and bounce dwm without having to exit vim or mutt. I also have music playing via moc in another screen session. Thanks to screen I could bounce my window manager without missing a beat. :-) -- Kevin http://www.RawFedDogs.net http://www.Lassie.xyz http://www.WacoAgilityGroup.org Bruceville, TX What's the definition of a legacy system?
