SuperLou -

I don't think that's possible but you can add a root access as a right click feature on the desktop icon which is handy.

table Icon
 Type: Program
 Caption: Emelfm
 Command: emelfm
 Icon: .xtdesktop/Emelfm.gif
 MenuCommand1: Emelfm as Super User: sudo emelfm
 X: 203
 Y: 5
 Status: anchor
end

Ke4nt showed us this one the other day. Now you can right click on the icon fo r root access instead of using the menu. I hope this helps some.

Thank you very much for the tip on the emelfm icon.  I don't know how many times I've traversed that menu!

I love this xtdesk right-click feature.

It would be nice if the

MenuCommand1: Emelfm as Super User: sudo emelfm

could be added to the next release of DSL along with a

MenuCommand1: XTerminal as Super User: sudo aterm

for the Xterminal desktop icon.

This way, you could just Right-click on either icon in order to bring up root terminals and file managers.

It is a good feature to have. I think the icons that benefit most from right clicking to root is Emelfm, XTerminal and Beaver.

Thank you! *smooch!*
