It's just a small experiment to prepare Oberon for a tablet version. In essence one can create several (separate!) logical display areas that all look like the standard Oberon display (works like virtual screens in macOS, i.e. one can just switch from one to another).</div><div id="AppleMailSignature"><br><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><b>peter at <a href="http://easthope.ca">easthope.ca</a></b> <a href="mailto:oberon%40lists.inf.ethz.ch?Subject=Re:%20Re%3A%20%5BOberon%5D%20%20frames%2C%20displays%20and%20screens%3B%0A%09was%20Re%20%282%29%3A%20I%20have%20been%20defeated.&In-Reply-To=%3CE1bJ07y-0000np-LP%40xo-53-1d-bb.localdomain%3E" title="[Oberon] frames, displays and screens; was Re (2): I have been defeated.">peter at easthope.ca </a><br><i>Fri Jul 1 17:13:10 CEST 2016</i></span><p></p><ul><li><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Previous message: <a href="http://lists.inf.ethz.ch/pipermail/oberon/2016/009578.html">[Oberon] On praise of repeat-until construct</a></span></li><li><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Next message: <a href="http://lists.inf.ethz.ch/pipermail/oberon/2016/009584.html">[Oberon] Oberon in Atlantic City</a></span></li><li><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><b>Messages sorted by:</b> <a href="http://lists.inf.ethz.ch/pipermail/oberon/2016/date.html#9583">[ date ]</a> <a href="http://lists.inf.ethz.ch/pipermail/oberon/2016/thread.html#9583">[ thread ]</a> <a href="http://lists.inf.ethz.ch/pipermail/oberon/2016/subject.html#9583">[ subject ]</a> <a href="http://lists.inf.ethz.ch/pipermail/oberon/2016/author.html#9583">[ author ]</a></span></li></ul><hr><pre><font face="UICTFontTextStyleBody"><span style="white-space: normal; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">From: Andreas Pirklbauer <<a href="https://lists.inf.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/oberon">andreas_pirklbauer at yahoo.com</a>>

necessary or helpful. Where or how will it fit in the screen with
the primary display?</span></pre><pre><span style="white-space: normal; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody;">Thanks, ... Lyall E.
