Has anybody developed an add-in / mod for BlackBox which allows you to
organise your open files as a tabbed set of windows occupying the whole
BlackBox workspace area, instead of the MDI style of overlapping windows?
For most tasks, I find this layout much easier to use - the only exception
being when I need to view two or more files simultaneously. Tabbed windows
are used to manage multiple source files in the Borland Delphi IDE,
Microsoft Visual Studio and FrontPage, TextPad (as an option) etc. etc.
I did a quick experiment and it only took about 30 lines of code to create a
new View and then create a new tabview for each file subsequently opened.
However, that was as far as I got. I don't know how easy or difficult it is
to arrange for all the standard BlackBox commands that currently work on the
current *view* to work on a current *tabview* instead.
