Re: [Gretl-devel] grep 1.9.8, once again
I use frequently the Open Source Notepad++ in Windows, and I can
detach and attach Tabbed windows easily.
I almost intrigued if you people does not know about that amazing software!
I believe that having a single "class" of windows is the condition to
have the tabbed windows attach and detach functions. Surely it will be
the easiest to code.

Thanks, Peter (and Berend). BTW, "grep"?? That shows what I was
thinking about when I made my last post.
When development resumes after the next release, I think that one
question is: what do people generally expect of the behavior of a
tabbed editor? What are the dominant examples? Obviously, we're free
to depart from the norm (assuming there is one) if we reckon we have
a compelling reason to do so. But we shouldn't just reinvent the
wheel arbitrarily.
On the multi-tabbed design I'm more than usually willing to listen
to what seems right to others, since -- as I've said already -- I'm
not a great fan of tabbed windows myself. I sometimes find tabs
useful in Firefox, but that's about it.
