Hi Johan,

perhaps a logical next step after implementing fullscreen is making the entire window layout configurable, with different configurations stored for normal mode and fullscreen mode. Right now this is partially done for rulers and scrollbars; there's a stored preference for each, controlling whether they are shown or not. If you are interested, you could split the rulers and scrollbars options into normal and fullscreen, and then apply the same to the menu, both toolbars, and the statusbar. I think this should not be difficult; all the screen layout code is in desktop.cpp, and the functions for showing/hiding rulers/scrollbars is also there, including the hooks for storing and retrieving preference values.

OK, sounds like something fun. I'll start coding on it tonight. I also had the idea of starting on a keyboard shortcut chooser GUI, like wmakerconf (of Windowmaker). Complete with xml preference export file etc. to avoid keyboard shortcut overlap as Nathan mentioned. I had the idea of programming it as a GTK widget as this might be useful to other projects.
