TDI interface

   +-------------------------------------------+
   |  Main window                              |
   +-------------------------------------------+
   | window 1 [x]| window 2 [x]| window 3[x]|  |
   +-------------------------------------------+
   |                                           |
   |                                           |
   | window 1                                  |
   |                                           |
   |                                           |
   +-------------------------------------------+

[x] = Close button;

The pattern with TDI is also very good ;)

example of TDI applications: Firefox, NetBeans, Aptana, Eclipse, KDESvn.
