I want to install a new remote machine and have all of it's programs available from my desktop without knowing ahead of time what is actually installed there. If a new program is installed on that machine, I want it to show up in the remotely-executed menu like it does if you log in there. X is designed to let anything run remotely. I don't see why the menu button should be an exception - someone would really have to go out of their way to break it - but I don't know how to invoke it by itself. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx
