Well I'm glad to know I could do that... Of course Since as I mentioned I do like a little protection from fat fingering as long as I can confirm with the keyboard I would then have to see if I can't reassign <ctrl>+<alt>+<del> to a command that opens a konsole running a an interactive bash script that conditionaly ran: enlightenment_remote -logout > 2.

So the fact that I couldn't find a key combo to do that is a theme issue... After a bit of stumbling around trying to tell the diff between my {censored} and my elbow, I managed to get detour-0.7.3_e17.edj installed. And yes, the tab/enter selection in the various pop-ups. Though I note that the highlighting of the selected option with such a slim blue outline makes my tired eyes squint...

I shall have to give it a whirl and see what I can get :-) It's to bad about those *duplicates* But I like this much better than doing it from scratch with the gui... I had E17 on my 54 bit laptop first. This script made it fairly simple to clone the hard won configuration.
