Re: Re: Poll: SDI or MDI for Linux as default? FINISHED

Indeed let's stop this poll.  SDI and MDI are and will
both be supported by SPE on all platforms. Default
behaviour was chosen by majority. Seems fair.
Jorge, spe is already using sashwindows.  The whole
window under in MDI with shell, recent, browser,
index, todo, ... is a sashwindow. That's not the
problem.  If people want dockable windows, you need to
write a class for a window which can switch
interactively between a (mini)frame and a sashwindow.
This is not impossible, but I have other things to do
(see previous mail). If someone wants to implement
this, he should test on the file sm/wxp/smdi.py (the
spe motor behind the double mdi/sdi interface). If it
works there, it will work in spe.
