I was able to map a key in sawmill to maximize the window. However it
still segfaults on exit (I'm 99% sure it's gcc). The 20010102 nightly
build/source seems to be the best. The 20010103 and 20010104 nightly
builds/sources fail to run (segfault). I'm gonna try a different gcc
(2.96), put it in my chroot, and see if that helps. Other then the
segfault on exit, the 20010102 build works very nice!
Just an FYI...
