X-Important-Saying: Premature Optimization Is The Root Of All Evil. X-Mailer: Mail User's Shell (7.2.5 10/14/92) To: sam-fans@hawkwind.utcs.toronto.edu Subject: 9menu A comment about starting 9term from 9menu; that'll work, for now. 9wm's "New" menu item will start 9term by default, and then xterm if it's not there, with a command line option to change what terminal program should be run (e.g., you might like xvt (== xterm on a diet)). The point being, 9wm will do that in the long run. I don't intend to fix it to change window labels or icon labels or anything like that for feedback while a program is spawning. Write a shell program to do it and have 9menu call that shell program... 9menu has enough bells and whistles as it is. :-) I'm told that 9wm should be out REALLY RSN... Arnold
