I just started using xdesktop today, now I'm not a complete newb to things like this. I've been using litestep all day now, and has a fair amount of success figuring things out and changing settings etc. Then i decided I wanted to install a module but for some reason I can't seem to wrap my head around how to install this module.

Here is what the readme file tells me.

----------------------------------------------------------

This simulation of the explorer desktop is up to 95% identical to Explorer Desktop! Just
set the following Three Lines and you're having your OldStyle Explorer Desktop =)

xDesktopAutoCreate
xDesktopConfigFile "$ConfigDir$yourdesktopfile.rc"
include "$ConfigDir$yourdesktopfile.rc"

----------------------------------------------------------

I just need to know where to put these lines.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Note that the desktopconfig.rc would normally be within the theme's config folder (included via the theme.rc), and the *Netloadmodule line would be in the theme's theme.rc file. The example there is if you want it applied to all themes.
