What would be great is not using the squeak menu inside the world, but drawing it on the system window. More like mac's, that is integrated in the global menu.
In Linux there is a GlobalMenuApplet for Gnome Panels that works like mac's Global Menu, and removes the menu from the windows and merges on the pannel. It's a nice advance to a mac interface. (That and CairoDock, of course) I don't have a clue about how to do it, but dreaming is free. :) Cheers, Mariano. 2010/7/8 Mariano Martinez Peck <[email protected]> > > > On Thu, Jul 8, 2010 at 10:30 AM, Geert Claes <[email protected]>wrote: > >> >> >> Carla F.
