Another interesting command. :-) When I run it, I get a nice tree, but
'x' is not listed. 'x' does appear when I run top. I do get kdeinit,
and it has under it the various things open on the desktop. Is x
'hidden' inside kde? Also, I get a 14*[kdeinit]. Does this mean that I
have 14 instances of kde running?

I got a book "Unix and X command compendium", since I didn't see a
good listing of commands in other books. It is good - BUT - it has
more than 2,200 commands documented! No wonder *nix is so confusing to
newbies. One could spend a good while just trying out all the
commands. :-)
