Subshells [message #446702]

Hi!

I have a main application with a few subshells, that may be open all at
the same time. I was wondering, is there any way of making the main shell
remain active no matter what subshell I select? The subshell should of
course become active too, as usual.

Does this make any sense? Has anyone tried to do this?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Stan

You can't have 2 shells active at the same time. Window managers won't
allow it.
