Until quite recently, i.e. in the last year or so, I used the Crux
theme in Gnome and more recent Xfce4. But in a recent install from
release 7.6 (of Wheezy), Crux has changed in a way that is significant
for me. I have a style of working in which I have many overlapping
terminal windows on the screen. When the window that has focus is too
small to contain some long lines without folding, I like to quickly expand
the window, either to the left or to the right, depending on what
other window will be covered by the expansion.
