System administrators of networks of hosts will sometimes open multiple command windows with a ssh session running in each. The windows can then be tiled and offset so that the bottom of each is visible under the window on top.
The admin can them easily change focus by just moving the mouse pointer between the tiled/offset windows and be able to enter commands just by typing. Having to click the mouse before typing would totally wreck this convenience, as would the window receiving focus rising to the top.
This capability lacking in MS Windows is the single most important factor that proves Windows is a toy operating system not designed for serious work, IMHO. YMMV.
interesting; i'm sometimes dealing with two or three remote servers simultaneously. so far i've been using different tabs in konsole, but that gets quickly confusing. stacked windows, with at least the bottom part visible, are probably easier to keep track of this way. -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
