It's just that after years with CTMW (and a seriously great/fast server), I'm switching to gnome or xfce. One thing that I've noticed with zsh is that when I to add to or vi-edit a command, under Gnome, the cursor is at the left-hand-side of the cmd line. So if I were to pipe the cmd thru more, for example, I'v got to reach up, hit ESC and then arrow rightward until I come to the end of the command. Is there an easy fix for this? Using CTWM the cursor is already on the RHS. Second question: how can I make the digital time on the bar/panel *larger*? I'm not blind; just that the typefface is hard to read until I get close to the tube. ANybody?? tia, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public Service Unix
