Well, being a community-developed project, anyone is free to work on whatever they think is important. Funny part is, the people expert enough to make a GUI tend to like using the command line, and so aren't interested. I personally don't even start X unless I've found an image I really want to see while browsing with Lynx. I like the command line better. I don't care what newbies use, or even what options newbies have. They can have pointy-clicky if they want, just don't make it so I have to have that too. -- Carl Tucker [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
