Hi, I just noticed that my rhythmbox used about ~10% just to play mp3s. Since this is ridiculous, I searched google for how to fix it. It turns out that one of the plugins is very inefficient.

So...

That is true GUI > CLI when it is for people who want it. But i didn't know about this, so I had to write 5 lines of shell code *sad*.....

On the plus side if I learnt tcl/tk, i could probably...

Yeah, the problems with earlier shell scripts is that they would often impose restrictionso n file names - like no spaces, or no subdirectories.

I think gconftool is probably the easiest - it is...
