I'm just wondrin if its possible for me to run applications at boot time but on another terminal. I find it cool to have a huge digital clock (grdc) running on background so that I can just shift to another terminal whenever I want to know the time. Actually, all I really want is a clock that is continuously ticking whatever I may be doing(in terminal window). I've already learned how to set my prompt to multiple lines and also displaying my current working directory. But now, I want it even more informative displaying a ticking digital clock in my shell prompt like the one i'm seeing in my kde system tray right now. Is it possible?. Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
