It's no problem. Just it would be nice if in some of the
next cvs version it is back to be settabel to a smal column.

I think the min width should probably be something like
chars * charwidth * num_of_menuchars. Setting it simply to
an integer might not be suitable as there're different fonts
used for them menue (e.g. I use SGI Screen which is a pretty
narrow font, while something like Garamont would flow much
"wider".)
BTW: Additionally it seems that you hooked of the window
from scids internal geometry management, ie. scid does not
remember it's size anymore. I do not know wether this is the
case for all windows, but in general scids internal geometry
managment actually is (and always was) the solution getting
multiple independent windows but beeing able to arrange them
as if they were an MDI. Hence, Scids windows are IMHO more
flexible than MDI. (Recently there was some discussion aobut
this issue.)

Absolutely no problem.
