[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1436718, member: 71075"] I'm going to guess that the Linux version isn't directly portable nor may it even be directly portable between desktop environments. I'm not sure what tool you're talking about but it is possible that it depends on libraries that are DE dependent. In other words, it may only run on GNOME because it leverages GNOME libraries. This is one of the downsides of closed source environments - they're less easily customizable and harder to tinker with. You may be out of luck here. However, perhaps something like [URL="http://totalterminal.binaryage.com/"]TotalTerminal[/URL] will meet your needs. It doesn't embed a command line prompt on the Desktop but it does make one easily accessible. [/QUOTE]
Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
