What don't you like about gnome? It has a widget for multiple time zones; it does take a while to boot up but I configure auto-login so I just turn the machine on then do some quick chore while the machine is booting up. There is gnome terminal (/usr/bin/gnome-terminal) which is what I use; you can't adjust the font size with ^+ but it is quite simple to create a profile to set the font to a comfortable size. I also set the color scheme to black on gray which is my preference; it has double-click copy/paste, a slider/mouse-wheel and multiple tabs. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
