Hello all,
I'm trying to add netscape to my start menu. I've added the file
2_netscape to my ~/GNUstep/Libraries/Afterstep/start directory. Here
are the contents of the file:

Exec "Netscape" exec netscape
MiniPixmap "mini-app.xpm"

What am I doing wrong? The problem is when I try to launch netscape
from my new menu option, the netscape window starts to draw, and then
I'm dumped back into xdm. I don't understand. Netscape works just fine
when I type 'netscape' from a terminal.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Michael

The new menu option works fine if I have already run netscape by typing
the command during the current session, but it fails if I try to use the
menu option for the first run of netscape.
