Re: Detachable Menus

[Christian Fredrik Kalager Schaller <Uraeus linuxrising org>]

There is a project called Configurator for GNOME in the software
map(http://www.daimi.au.dk/~maxx/maxximum-linux.html). It aims at
creating a GUI for setting such advanced settings. I suggest that people
who want a GUI for feature X or Y send a patch to the author of this
app.
