Hi daperl. That dialogue box is made with gxmessage. It is like Zenity lite; you pass it some parameters and it makes a very basic dialogue box. So I have very little control over how the thing looks. The most important thing is, I would guess, that it works.

I could sure use a hand from a developer; could someone write me a little daemon that checks a specified directory, and if it finds a text file in there with "#eof" as the last line, it will treat the file like a shell script and run the script, then delete the file? The #eof requirement is there so that the daemon doesn't try to run a script that is in the middle of being made by another process.

This little daemon would allow me to make icons in the chroot that can run apps outside the chroot, getting rid of the ugly little menu completely.

Oh and hey, daperl, your avatar is uglier than my dialogue box.
