Thanks to both you and Monsieur Gaston!

I can't remember when I gave up on KDE and I have never been able
to fit Gnome - - - - after I found LXDE - - - well I've used parts of likely
both KDE and Gnome but am uninterested in the whole enchilada -
- - - they're just tooooooooooo big. There were some hiccups
transitioning from LXDE to LXQT but that's where I've been for quite
some time.

Appreciate the assistance!
