Thanks very much. Both options sound just right.

Someone complained the other day when she wanted to play music on my 
machine, and I told her how to start qjackctl, xmms and open konqueror 
(because the xmms "open file" window is a bit dated, and I thought she'd 
prefer the look of konqueror).

She said that it was easier in Windows. So I just felt the need to 
demonstrate how cool the alternatives are.

Thanks
