Anyway, I decided I wouldn’t download it from the repositories ready made and ready to run. I downloaded the source code and compiled it myself, so I had the very latest version :) I’m glad I did, it taught me some new things :)

I have to say that I REALLY like it. Especially because of the capabilities it has…and how much you can customise it…I spent around 2-4 hours customising mine!

Here’s a screen shot of the finished product :) (Click the thumbnail for the full size image)
