If it isn't too much trouble, how did you configure yours to look like that? It would fit so well into my whole environment :)

Thanks for the config.. one more question (thanks for bearing with me, I'm still new to all of this).

Do you know why mine has random letters/numbers in place of the symbols on yours? (That was actually my favorite part!)

Thanks!

Edit: Never mind, I simply had to install the fonts!
