And it is still a bad idea. Look what other people think what you should do with an .exe file: http://groups.google.com/group/alt.os.linux.suse/browse_frm/thread/9ca4f987a3758270/9ac753ff392bf593?lnk=st&q=exe+group%3Aalt.os.linux.suse+screensaver&rnum=2#9ac753ff392bf593 or http://tinyurl.com/pdx3r Wether right or wrong, people associate .exe with Windows (or dos) programs. If it is just an .exe extention, why not remove the extention alltogether or use something that is common practice under Linux? Using exe is willingly going against common practice, no matter how correct it is technically. It is confusing, to say the least and continued use shows no respect for the user. It looks as if it is a case of 'I can do it, so I do it'. houghi -- Nutze die Zeit. Sie ist das Kostbarste, was wir haben, denn es ist unwiederbringliche Lebenszeit.
