Nice. But I still prefer my powerful editor. So, here's an addition to
the tip:

if you use Emacs, you can make it fullscreen (e.g. in KDE 4+, right
click on the title bar, choose Advanced->Fullscreen). Then, M-x
tool-bar-mode and M-x menu-bar-mode will clear stuff for you. Which
(regular) Emacs user uses the menu/tool bars anyway?

A similar effect can be achieved in gvim using:

:set guioptions-=m  "remove menu bar
:set guioptions-=T  "remove toolbar

HTH.
