Hi net,

I'm a big believer in iconifying my windows...I mean, I like to have my
editor still around, but shrunk down to a tiny little box when I'm not
using it.  Much better than having to flip through screens and stuff.

The problem is, every iconifier I've tried out either crashes on me (Wicon,
a fairly long time ago) or when deiconifying the window, its contents are
erased (conman's F1/F2 keys, or SmartIcon off one of the new fish disks).  

Anybody able to help me out of this dilemma?

Also, anybody have any pointers on how to make a shell window keep an
output history (like rollback, but I haven't been able to get that to
work)?

Much appreciated.
