That is far outside the scope of my capabilities. I already have wx and gtk backends set up (although it needs to be tested) with hard-coded values, and qt4 half-working (and tested, this doesn't appear to be possible in qt). I can submit patches for that, and if someone else wants to make it configurable they can do so. I'll set it up to use variables that you can then do what you want with. -Todd ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.
