But what exactly is a 'terminal profile'? Is this a gnome thing? Do these 'profiles' exist or should I create them? I searched on my disk and found a directory named 'profiles' for a variety of gnome apps under /usr/X11R6/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/apps. For example, for gnome-terminal, the %gconf.xml found under /usr/X11R6/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default/ has an entry named icon which apparently points to some other place: and again looking around I've found yet another %gconf.xml (why do they begin with a %?) at /usr/X11R6/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default/ (do the previous entry referred to this file?) which contains again another entry named 'icon', but now with a filename that does appear to point to an actual graphic file: [several tags snipped] gnome-terminal.png Icon to use for tabs/windows containing this profile. am I on the right track? What other files should I need to edit/create in order for this 'magic' to work? Or perhaps it could be done with gconf? Thanks again for any pointer, Fernan
