hmmm...well menu already has the "wm" bit and if wm's create a menu entry using this that would allow for singling them out. menu also has the ability to do just about anything theoretically and would require no other programs except for customized menu-methods for each dm provided by the dm's. I don't see a reason why it can't be used. It's a *MUCH* cleaner approach than using the alternatives list and allows for proper names (ie.. Gnome vs. gnome-session). /me runs off to try it with kdm... Ivan -- ---------------- Ivan E.
