[Scratchpad terminal Braden Shepherdson **20080225183633

Key binding and ManageHook to pop up a small, floating terminal window for a few quick commands.

Combined with a utility like detach[1], makes a great X application launcher.

Requires my two new ManageHooks (doRectFloat, specifically).

[1] http://detach.sourceforge.net

Are there any differences between detach and the disown shell builtin? (Other than maybe syntax prettiness... which you could get with a shell function...) ie. is detach ... program better or different than: program & disown %1 ?
