ScreenShell opens a new public screen and spawns a new shell in a full size
borderless backdrop window. That means; NO annoying scrollbars, titlebars
nor other gadgets, but full use of the screen real estate.

If you find ScreenShell useful, or have a suggestion, drop me a mail
ScreenShell is MAILWARE (If you use it, send a mail to the author).
