what about a solution that share space equally among others tabs,
and set the current tab size to at least the size of others,
or bigger if needed ?
this way it's looking good when i'm switching tabs, and have only 3 xterms
in a tab, and it's usable too when i have huges titles, or
many windows.
thanks
