HBIDE is meant to edit all sources, not just and not 
particularly our own ones. It's nice to enforce some 
good practices (f.e. automatic formatting along with 
Harbour SVN standards as a default), but there are things 
which may quite well may be different in other users code, 
along with their own preferences or heritage. TAB vs. spaces 
and indentation width are such things, so ideally HBIDE 
should make it configurable to fit users' existing coding 
style.

IMO HBIDE should offer Harbour standards as default 
and let user override it.

I'm not sure this is priority, given that it seems 
to need tricks on certain platforms. F.e. Opera OS X, 
has such mode and it means all standard parts of the 
screen (like menubar, dock) is hidden and only the 
app content is visible on screen, even without window 
borders or toolbars. Firefox OS X does the same but 
it leaves the url/navigation toolbar visible.

There are plenty of 3rd party apps doing that 
perfectly. It's unnecessary to clutter HBIDE with 
such thing IMO. Same goes for task/project management, 
and the already dropped web-browser.

Besides duplicating efforts and losing focus, it also 
make HBIDE heavier and heavier, and I'm not sure it's 
good idea to pull in large amount of unnecessary 
code into memory just to edit source files.

[ BTW, IMO the documentation editor is already somewhat 
off-place. ]
