Thanks. That really helps a lot. So, I can't use the Aqua interface stuff and get rid of the hideous grey menus in Gimp. That's good to know.

Second, what if I didn't want to use Fink? I don't know that I am completely against it, but I tried it a long time ago with 10.1 and it didn't work very well for me. It installed a bunch of things in strange places and required me to move stuff around and change permissions. I ended up just downloading the things I wanted like lynx and such and compiling them myself. My problem with trying that with X11 stuff is that I don't understand X11 and where things need to go for it, and I also don't know where to look for apps to see if there is anything I would really want. Is there a Web site like Versiontracker for X11 stuff. When I search for X11 stuff, I get a whole complicated mess of responses that don't make much sense to me. Maybe I just need to download Fink.

Thanks again, that's really the basic stuff I needed to know.
