Heh, the terminal really isn't anything like the windows registry assuming Linux hasn't changed unrecognizably over the past year or so.

What is Beryl, exactly, if you don't mind me asking?

I know, I was just trying to relate it to windows in some way lol. Now beryl is what gives it awesome effects. like burning the window, wobbly windows, the infamous desktop cube and so on.

Ahh. That does sound pretty sweet. Well, is Beryl like a WM altogether or do you use it along side another WM? I have Slackware installed on a box at home which I could try running it on.

it runs the desktop in OpenGL mode, in the same way that vista uses that aero shit to run it in DirectX. it's a bloatware technology that nobody in the world actually needs
