=head1 GTK+ BASH FILE CHOOSER B is a hack that replaces the dreaded, slow and hard-to-use GTK+ file chooser by a rxvt-unicode window with a little script that you to use readline tab-completion to enter filenames. Again, its a dire hack and will not work with all programs. It does work for gimp, firefox, gedit at least, though. =head2 INSTALLATION Install rxvt-unicode. Then copy the F to F and make sure its executable and opens a window where you can enter a filename when executed as F, which will then be echod to stdout. Then run F, this will create a F shared object. You have to specify this shared object as LD_PRELOAD when running gtk programs. Either manually: LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/gtkbfc.so gimp Via an alias: alias gimp='LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/gtkbfc.so gimp' Or by putting it into your F (not really recommended for performance reasons). =head2 AUTHOR Marc Lehmann .
