399<p>A very primitive quake-console-like extension. It was inspired by a
400description of how the programs <code>kuake</code> and <code>yakuake</code> work: Whenever the
401user presses a global accelerator key (by default <code>F10</code>), the terminal
402will show or hide itself. Another press of the accelerator key will hide
403or show it again.</p>
404</dd>
405<dd>
406<p>Initially, the window will not be shown when using this extension.</p>
407</dd>
408<dd>
409<p>This is useful if you need a single terminal thats not using any desktop
410space most of the time but is quickly available at the press of a key.</p>
411</dd>
412<dd>
413<p>The accelerator key is grabbed regardless of any modifiers, so this
414extension will actually grab a physical key just for this function.</p>
415</dd>
