Truely amazing Frank!!!
You just did an awesome job and it did work for me
Guess I got really excited since this was my first post though I have been visiting this forum for a while now.
If you don't mind, can you please tell me a bit about those regular expressions?
I assume ^ stands for first line though not sure about !, ', ], p etc..
I am learning all these though it would be at least a good couple of months before I get close to this. One last favour was I already have a host of online sites, contents, ebooks to go through on general linux and unix stuff though if you can refer me to any good books for scripting beginners on both shell and perl, that would be really great. Though, this is not very urgent.
Thanks once again,
Andy.

startfluxbox
STARTFLUXBOX(1) Fluxbox Manual STARTFLUXBOX(1)
NAME
startfluxbox - start a fluxbox session
SYNOPSIS
startfluxbox
DESCRIPTION
startfluxbox is a script which runs the file ~/.fluxbox/startup If it doesn't exist it will be generated.
startfluxbox should be started from your ~/.xinitrc if you use startx, or ~/.xsession if you run a display manager, like xdm.
FILES
~/.fluxbox/startup
This file contains all commands that should be executed before fluxbox is started. The initial file contains helpful comments for
beginners. It also starts fluxbox.
EXAMPLES
The default ~/.fluxbox/startup is as follows:
#!/bin/sh
#
# fluxbox startup-script:
#
# Lines starting with a '#' are ignored.
# Change your keymap:
xmodmap "$HOME/.Xmodmap"
# Applications you want to run with fluxbox.
# MAKE SURE THAT APPS THAT KEEP RUNNING HAVE AN ''&'' AT THE END.
#
# unclutter -idle 2 &
# wmnd &
# wmsmixer -w &
# idesk &
# And last but not least we start fluxbox.
# Because it is the last app you have to run it with ''exec'' before it.
exec fluxbox
# or if you want to keep a log:
# exec fluxbox -log "$fluxdir/log"
If you need to start applications after fluxbox, you can change the exec fluxbox line above to something like this:
exec fluxbox &
fbpid=$!
sleep 1
{
xsetroot -cursor_name left_ptr -fg white -bg black &
ipager &
gkrellm2 &
} &
wait $fbpid
So xsetroot, ipager, and gkrellm2 will all be started after fluxbox, after giving fluxbox 1 second to startup.
For more details on what else you can do in this script, see sh(1), or the documentation for your shell.
