Why should they need menu bars and tool bars etc? I think they would
be useful without it. We have mentioned some things:
- Windows inside forms a group.
- This group can be visually marked so a user quickly can grasp it.
- Some commands that we already have can work on windows in this
group, just as they today work on frames (nearly, of course).
- Frame commands could work on framelettes, just as...
- The concept could be made recursive (which might be usefull).
None of these requires menus or toolbars for the framelettes
themselves. (One can compare tool windows in other IDE:s. These may of
course also be implemented as "floating frames" on GUI platforms.)
