This will be great study material.

This is a gem. Looks like sysconfig has way more than just 'default' too.

I'll probably just use run to get 'uxterm -r', I can't stand default
terminals.

This is very heplful too, and easy to remember.

Hrmm, I hope there's not too much involved with that. I am clueless about
SELinux.
