  Beats me. That's what it is called in top and htop. Strange that Gnome
would be setup to call only gnome-appearance ( the name of the
module )..normally it's set up to call gnome-control-center.

Still can't figure out why it stays running after being closed. If I run
it twice it'll suck up 100% of my dual-core cpu and bring my box to its
knees.
