Say I have an application icon stored in xterm/icon.png. Can I just open xterm/icon.png in Gimp without having to open up a new instance of Gimp, and just use the old instance that I was using for other images? Or Can I use emacs to edit xterm/description.txt without having to open up a new instance of emacs? Will scripts be able to use metafiles and normal files at the same time? -- Hubert Chan - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.
