I feel it's nice to define keyboard shortcuts of your own. Even if you change the distro version or the distro itself or just the window manager you can carry your shortcuts to the next by setting them up once. An aside: if you are a keyboard fan, try ratpoison window manager. Besides being more keyboard oriented, what I like about it is, it has non overlapping windows, no controls like minimize, maximize etc. Every window (except pop ups) occupies the full screen - like a kiosk mode. (E.g. you can imagine xterm would look like console in this.) There are ways to split a screen to let more than 1 windows fit on one screen if you want to view 2 applications simultaneously. Besides, it's highly configurable, has a very small size and memory footprint. Mayuresh _______________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List
