Joost,

Thanks a lot for pointing out that aqua-style button script!  I have it 
working now (luckily for me, I'm using Debian 'testing', unlike Joerg).  

I don't know the Gimp very well, but this is how I got it to work: 
1) In Gimp, select Xtns/Perl/Server
2) Run 'perl aqua.pl' from the command line

It may or may not be that simple.  First I tried installing Gimp.pm from CPAN, 
and it wouldn't install for a trivial reason that I could have fixed, except 
that I said, "Screw it, I'm using Gimp1.2; I'll just install the debian 
package (gimp1.2-perl)".  Which I did, and you'd be amazed at the long list 
of stuff that got installed.  I'm not sure if they are all needed or which 
components (Gimp or Gimp.pm) need them.
