The icons "glow" on mouse\-over, and the icons themselves can be any size. Other attributes, such as font, font size, transparency, and shadows are configurable. -.SH "INSTALLING" -Idesk is known to run on FreeBSD, Linux, NetBSD, OpenBSD. If a package is not available for your platform, you can compile it from source. -.PP -\fBSteps:\fR -.IP -1. Unpack the source tar.gz to a desired location.\bR -.br -2.

One suggested way to start idesk is: -.IP -nohup idesk > /dev/null & -.PP -After Idesk is running, click on an icon to start whatever command you -assigned it.
