Thanks... and I couldn't agree with you more that these are serious
usability issues that need to be addressed! Many of these are irritations
that have been bugging me as well. While there is no end to the list of
features we still want and need to add, it is also time to address these
usability irritants.

Of course (as usual with open source projects) we could always use some more
volunteers to help us fix stuff like this (as well as add new features).

One question about the two monitor problem (I don't have two monitors to try
this). I would suspect that this is a FOX/FXRuby problem and is not specific
to FreeRIDE. If its possible for you to try some other FXRuby application on
your two monitor setup to confirm this, that would be a big help.

Thanks,
Curt
