in1.1?


  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.

      I was thinking that a while ago as well.  How about a top menu-bar like 
the
      Apple Menu like this (see screen mockup)?

    This is cool. You did it? is it working ?  because we have HostMenus-Mac, 
but it is only MacOS.

      On a side note, there's another small thing which has been bothering me is
      that even though I really like the Mac theme and look and feel the
      Red/Yellow/Green Close/Min/Max buttons don't indicate which one is which 
on
      a mouse-over so you need to know which color does what.  I liked the 
windows
      button I saw in one of the Smalltalk Medicine Show video's.  It still had 
a
      nice look-n-feel but the icons actually had more meaning.
