"He chose to paint the situation that exists between GNOME and KDE as a picture of glorious harmony - but then one can only ask questions. One can't dictate answers." So, what do you do when you're given a set of unprofessional and highly combative interview questions? You dodge the bullets and tell the truth! :-) Here's an interview I did with a local newspaper last week. Harsh!

OT: Tabs question

Submitted by Lambda on Fri, 2003-02-21 22:18.

Why do apps have tabs? Why don't they just put all of the same app in another taskbar? So you have two taskbars, and when you click mozilla in your normal taskbar, all your mozilla windows appear in the secondary taskbar (like a tab bar, but for all programs).

This way you don't rewrite tab functionality in every app.

This way you don't have different keybindings for tabs in every application.
