Unfortunately, this is the road I was looking for :)
I'll have a look on the archives on that, thanks for the tip.

Oh, silly me. I knew this works under Windows, but I should have specified I

interface is not as developed as the Windows one, so it's probably not 
possible yet.

Thanks for everything,
