It looks like a console, but with better color rendering (try it out). NOTE: this is using KDE's full-screen functionality, not the Emacs command-line option --full-screen. However, on my "home" workspace, I also keep two frames with Gnus and my diary. In those frames I'd like to have the menu-bar at the least. I've been mucking about with make-variable-frame-local, but the problem I'm having is controlling the modes from within a function (perhaps a hook). I just don't know where to go from make-variable-frame-local --- can I even make a mode frame-local? What's the relationship between a mode and a variable? Has anyone found a way to do this already?
