Well, that kind of flexibility is alot harder to do with SDL as it doesn't offer widgets to manage views ... In contrast gtk has one widget per virtual console, and I can easily shuffle around them: Just reparent from notebook to standalone window ("detach tab") and visa-versa (when closing the detached window). How about using gtk instead? cheers, Gerd
