Don't worry about that for now. Intead you can allow menu and status bar be hidden too.

I think an API/plugin system is very important to the IDE. Even some features inside HbIDE should be "plugins". You could try to use the Harbour model about separation of core and "contribs/plugins" even when the plugin is 100% yours. Just to fill your dreams, think about slots defined by plugins on status bar, menu bar, toolbar, keyboard mapping, panels (new ones). Think about a ease way to plugins hijack editor behaviors to modify them. Just some free thoughts. []'s Maniero
