erm. you really could have tried this first. it doesn't take much, you know. for the record, i once had a go at implementing a "hide" command within acme, but i never got it stable enough to make available. it would be nice if more of the invariants in the acme code were documented. what i was really aiming towards was a way to allow acme to take up multiple rio windows - the idea would be to allow dragging of acme windows (or columns) between the acme rio windows. that way i could edit a load of related files in a single rio window but avoid cluttering things up when i want to digress into another project for a while (but also avoid the risk of simul-editing a file that you get when starting two acmes at the same time). it could also make the X command more useful than it currently is. in sam, the X command is great because you can edit many related files at the same time without necessarily cluttering the screen with them, but in acme it's a bit of a pain to do a global edit across (say) 100 source files. it's for this sort of thing i end up firing up sam -d, but it's so easy to waste time with files that i'm already editing, etc. at the acme data structure level, i reckoned it shouldn't be too hard - there are multiple Windows per Column, multiple Columns per Row, but there's only one Row. if there were multiple rio windows, each would be represented by a Row, but so far i've always got bogged down in the implementation details, time restrictions and my own brain limitations...
