Hello,

Dirk and I are reviewing some bat terminology to try to maintain a bit of 
consistency, and we are faced with the issue of how to refer to windows that 
can be detached from the main bat window and "float" or exist in an 
independent window.  We need two terms: one for pulling the window out of bat 
and creating a separate window, and the second is taking the separate window 
and putting it back into bat.

The terminology that Qt uses is docked windows, but we have a number of ideas 
for naming this action:

undock dock
detach attach
float  attach 
float dock
inflate deflate
engage disengage
pullout pushin
callout  callin
externalize internalize
expound impound

I personally lean toward float and dock, but detach and attach are not bad.
However, we would be interested to hear your ideas.

Best regards,

Kern
