Thanks! I'll give this a go.

I'll also be installing different spins on several different machines, so one of the top things on my present to-do list is to get my configs into a Github repo.

Thanks everyone! :D Wuxmedia: Thanks for the detailed reply! Ivanovnegro: I actually did mean that somewhat literally. mb: As I get around to them, I certainly will!

This is my first time using the parte...

I've had no formal CS training, and I've only gotten so far with coding on my own time over the years. I've been glancing at BBQ every now and then since the past spring, and I've finally gotten arou...
