There is a trend for several years now to make editors and IDEs, mostly cro=
ss platform and not Mac native, with only one window containing multiple pa=
nes; you can resize and move the panes within the window but you can't move=
 them outside the window--it's all in one window. Some have tabs per pane b=
ut generally the panes don't overlap.  As a result, code windows are way to=
o small as are all the others. You maybe get six visible lines in a termina=
l or REPL window. It's a little like Windows 1.0 and very bad UI design IMH=
O, especially for smaller screens such as are on laptop computers.
