Hi Gary, I'm running Xfce4 over here on Slackware, and there are no problems firing up KDE apps as needed. A neat thing if you have python aboard is the MenuMaker script http://menumaker.sourceforge.net/ ,---- | MenuMaker is utility written entirely in Python that scans through the | system for installed programs and generates menu for specified X window | manager. It is by far more superior to existing solutions in terms of | knowledge base size, maintainability and extensibility, and has a number | of features that have no counterparts in its class. MenuMaker is intended | for users of lightweight *NIX graphical desktop environments. `---- But it will scoop up all your KDE and Gnome apps too :-) It certainly beats churning out menus by hand! It works with Fluxbox, openbox, Icewm, Windowmaker, Xfce and Xfce4... Good luck Glyn
