400<p>A very primitive quake-console-like extension. It was inspired by a
401description of how the programs <code>kuake</code> and <code>yakuake</code> work: Whenever the
402user presses a global accelerator key (by default <code>F10</code>), the terminal
403will show or hide itself. Another press of the accelerator key will hide
404or show it again.</p>

411space most of the time but is quickly available at the press of a key.</p>
