Are Eclipse or Kdevelop capable of detaching windows from the surrounding MDI window and float on the desktop on their own? The Gimp is doing it the way I like it, 'cause with multiple windows I can make use of my window manager's features. Especially keyboard shortcuts and moving windows between screens and virtual desktops. bye, Settel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
