Hmm... this is odd. Start-Here -> Application -> Desktop Pref. is the same as Start-Here -> Desktop Pref. Only difference is the Desktop Pref. icon is different looking. However, in both I only see the default keyboard shortcuts as being changable. I don't see a way to add new ones (i.e., tie into a launcher/program). Any clues? Sorry for driving this one to the ground. I really want to make Gnome work for me. I like IceWM, but there's something about Gnome's consistency & beauty. > > > Thanks for the tip.

Damn... not there yet. I'll look at the code, but I'm just starting C. Thanks again! Eric Pierce __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!
