If there are only a few, just drag them off the menus and drop on the desktop. You'll get nice large icons in the launcher that is automatically created. If you want several, or several categories you can put them in folders on the desktop to group them. Then you can change the default session to IceWM and Nautilus running in the background will let you use the launchers with a nice simple look and feel. If you stick to Gnome, you also have the option of dragging the icons to the task bar or into drawers you've made there. -- Les Mikesell les@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
