Hm, now that I think about it, I only ever saw that feature on Solaris. Back
in the day I used one Linux system running Xi Graphics release of CDE, and I
can't for the life of me remember if it had the feature in question. I'm not a
programmer so the work you all do is way above my pay grade ;) so if I feel the
need to change things I'll just use the guide on the project site.
