TilingWM - layout policies

Thanks to Stefan, Serge, Patrick and Estelle now you can choose a Layout Strategy in settings.

Actually there's Horizontal (default) and Vertical (last used windows fills all remaining space) strategies.

To add your own just subclass TWMLayoutStrategy and implement #tileWindows:

Cheers,

An idea is that when we double click on a method in the browser (or use a key shorcut) it opens a new window with just an editor with class>>method as title. So we can open several editors that don't eat space.

Then we can add a TWM Layout strategy that put only one browser on top and all editor windows tiled below.

Another way is that browsing panes can be hidden by default (add a setting for this behavior) so it shows only method / class definition. Add a button to toggle browsing panes visibility (may be easier to do this).

Laurent.
