I'm trying Gnome+Sawfish and so far I like the combo. I've found one thing I miss from just plain Windowmaker, adding a menu item that prompts you for information. In WindowMaker I just added the %a(Prompt) to a menu item and WindowMaker would prompt me for text and put that into the command before executing the command. So I had entries in one of my menus like:
usr/bin/X11/xterm -e ssh -X %a(host:) so WindowMaker would prompt me with a dialog box and "host:" as a prompt and then I'd type in the host name and WindowMaker would execute the command with "%a(host:)" replaced by my response. Is there a way to do this in a Gnome menu? Thanks, Gary
