[Cuis-dev] Update: Alt+Return as a full screen toggle shortcut

[Luciano Notarfrancesco]

Well, I use them with my tiling window manager for Cuis. I use alt-w to
close a window, alt-esc to toggle a window maximized state,
alt-shift-{B,W,etc} to open a browser, workspace, etc...

But I do this in my DWM package, and I override
KeyboardEvent>>sendTo:localPosition: to remove the other shortcuts now
included in the base image and instead call
WindowManagerMorph>>keyStroke:morph: (a class of my own in the DWM
package), and this method returns true if it handled the keystroke,
otherwise the event follows the normal flow.

I don’t use the global shortcuts from the base image, tho, and I’ll be
happy if we at least keep them in one place so I don’t get more troubles
when maintaining my package.
