There's that possibility, other possibilities:
* Use an MDI window
* Separate but tabbed editor window
However it's not clear which one is most desirable at this point.

Other requests I have so far:
* Variables tab
* Use Octave's history buffer

Things I personally want to do:
* Make MinGW go (*)
* Fix Help, perhaps using QTextBrowser (althought QAssistant would be
superior.)
* Add line numbers to the editor
* Fix the directory tab (perhaps by implementing my own QDirModel) so it ha=
s
".." in it.

Patches accepted!

(*) Latest news: I'm supposed to try to link against liboctave statically.
If you know how to do that, let me know. If that doesn't fix it, I'm going
to need liboctave to collaborate and give me a pointer to its cerr. To fix
the issue with a cmd.exe window popping up briefly when you do "ls" is a
separate thing for which I have a workaround.
