  61         <h3>Features</h3>
  62
  63         <p><em>Application's Fullscreener</em> brings two main tools:</p>
  64         <ul class="square">
  65           <li><strong>gtk_fullscreen_process</strong>: This
  66           application identifies a <em>XWindow ID</em> by its
  67           process <em>PID</em> and sends a <em>XKeyEvent</em> which
  68           emulates the stroke of the hardware key in
  69           the <a href="http://wiki.maemo.org/N810" target="_blank">N8x0</a> devices
  70           for un/fullscreening the foreground application.</li>
  71
  72           <li><strong>g_launch_and_fullscreen</strong>: This
  73           application spawns a process by its name and also
  74           a <em>gtk_fullscreen_process</em> which will try to
  75           fullscreen a windows owned by the first process after some
  76           seconds. Also, it will not return until the first process is
  77           dead and will pass the <em>SIGHUP</em> signal when needed to
  78           the first spawn process.<br/>This makes it quite suitable to
  79           its usage with a watchdog
  80           like <a href="https://garage.maemo.org/projects/dsm/" target="_blank">dsme</a>.</li>
