Free full screen caller software for linux

Full Screen is an extension which provides a fulscreen button on the toolbar.

Adds Full Screen toolbar button and context menu command.

After installing use View / Toolbars / Customize... to add the button to the toolbar.

AmarokFS Startup Script simply provides a shortcut for starting AmarokFS ("Amarok Full Screen") from within Amarok itself.

AmarokFS itself can be downloaded from: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=52641

Installation:

Download the .amarokscript.tar file and install it with Amaroks script installer.

Usage:

Upon startup, the script will automatically look for the "amarokFS" executable in your PATH, and if not found, will prompt you for its location.

Once the script is running, you will have an "AmarokFS" menu entry in your playlist popup menu; now simply select "Run Amarok Full Screen" to activate AmarokFS.

The script can also be configured to use an amarokFS executable other than the one detected in the users PATH.

R-kiosk provides an extension that defaults to full screen, disables all menus, toolbars, key commands and right button menus.

Real Kiosk is a Firefox 2.0 extension that defaults to full screen, disables all menus, toolbars, key commands and right button menus. Alt+Home still takes you home.

You can enable Navigation toolbar by adding the following to user.js:
user_pref("rkiosk.navbar", true);

You might want to remove the print dialog by adding following lines to your user.js:
user_pref("print.always_print_silent",true);
user_pref("print.show_print_progress",false);

Notice that the user can still close Firefox with for example Alt-F4 and get access to your computer. You might want to prevent this with a suitable utility program for your operating system.

Caution! R-kiosk extension can be removed only in Firefox Safe Mode.

Tin project is a full-screen easy to use Netnews reader.
It can read news locally (i.e., /var/spool/news) or remotely (rtin or tin -r option) via a NNTP (Network News Transport Protocol) server.
It will automatically utilize NOV (News OVerview) style index files if available locally or via the NNTP XOVER command.
Quick Install:
configure to your local setup (have a look at):
./configure --help (or ./conf-tin)
check your local setup in:
include/autoconf.h
compile with:
make build (or cd src; make)
install with:
make install
Install at your own risk.
Enhancements:
- A few possible buffer overflows were fixed.

CLEX project is a file manager with a full-screen user interface written in C with the curses library.
It displays directory contents (including file status details) and provides features like command history, filename insertion, or name completion in order to help the user to construct commands to be executed by the shell (there are no built-in commands).
CLEX is easily configurable and all its features are explained in the on-line help.
Enhancements:
- This version corrects a bug.
- On some systems the filter in the file panel was counting selected files incorrectly.
- This data inconsistency could cause problems in other functions.

Ion is a tiling (no overlapping windows) window manager which also has PWM-style tabbed frames which can contain multiple client windows.
These features help to keep windows organized and to switch quickly between them. Ion was designed primarily as an efficient and unobtrusive window manager for users who prefer the keyboard
Main features:
- Tiling workspaces with tabbed frames, as discussed above.
- Designed to be primarily used from the keyboard.
- Fully documented configuration and scripting interface on top of the lightweight Lua extension language.
- Modular design. The main binary implements only basic window manager functionality. Actual window management policies are implemented by dynamically loaded workspace and other modules.
- The query module implements a line editor similar to mini buffers in many text editors. It is used to implement many different queries with tab-completion support: show manual page, run program, open SSH session, view file, goto named client window or workspace, etc.
- To run those few particularly badly behaving programs, Ion also supports conventional workspaces of the PWM flavour through the floatws module. This module is also used to implement PWM2 on top of the Ion core library.
- Other modules include the drawing engine, dock module for Window Maker dockapp support, menu module and, of course, the tiled workspaces module.
- Full screen client windows are seen as workspaces on their own. It is possible to switch to a normal workspace while keeping several client windows in full screen state and also switch clients that do not themselves support full screen mode to this state.
Ion is not perfect and certainly not for everyone, but neither is any user interface. To ultimately solve usability problems to the extent possible with current technologies, applications should be written independent of their user interfaces and the UIs should be built according to the users preferences based on a high-level semantic description of commands provided by the application.
Ion is, however, improving all the time and if you take the time to get used to it, you should hardly ever have to touch the mouse again to move between windows. Just remember that not all programs will play nicely with Ion because of presumptions about the window management model and even incompliance to the ICCCM. Terminal programs should work better than ever before, at least.
Enhancements:
- This third "rc" release again simply fixes some minor problems in the previous release.
