    Thanks Simo, Kai.

    Just made my desktop environment 100 times better.

    That last problem above is the sticking point - I'll check out the docs
    and the mailing list for enlightenment to see if I can find a way of
    changing it. If not, I'll defect over to sawfish or wmaker.

    There's another niggle I've got but it's trivial - underneath my top
    panel from gnome, is the panel from enlightenment and the only advantage
    I can see for it is that as Simo said you can middle click it and get
    the list of open apps. Is there anything else you can do with it? I
    can't stick applets on it so it looks pretty vestigial.
