SuperKaramba... Now there's an idea. Problem is, looks like you need to learn the Python language before you can create any widgets. Secondly, I'm not sure if Superkaramba supports text input. It seems more like a disply device than something that would take text input. Or am I wrong here?
The Eterm suggestions are nice, but I'm talking more than changing backgrounds, using a colored font, or using a transparant background. Stephen, you might be right using it for changing color. If I learned bash scripting, perhaps I could set a color change for each character. Somthing like start at bright orange, after one second change to a darker orange, then repeat until it stops at red. Shocks me that nothing like this is out there already. Looks like if it doesn't exist I'll have to learn some type of language - either Python for SuperKaramba or advanced bash scripting... Any other comments out there? Maybe I should hit up the expert list out there... -----Original Message----- From: Dodd GS07 David J [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2004 4:02 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [newbie] Where are the exotic terminals and consoles - Eye ca ndy?
