From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ooh, I wonder how the menu bar works across apps since most are designed to have menus in-window. I remember older versions of KDE used a global menu bar and there were some hacks to move some GTK apps' menus into there as well, but it wasn't totally consistent.
Might have to give this a try.
BTW modern KDE still has this as a module and it works pretty well with both Qt and GTK programs (though with GTK it sometimes shows it in both locations).
