show keys on designated area? #40

Hi This seems a very nice application. Here are my questions:

Keep the last 5 commands in a stack in this area? With smaller text size is preferable. This allows the audience to follow a tutorial easier.

Alright, many of my questions are already addressed in the latest version in this git repo. So I will close this for now.

Ubuntu is, sadly, not the same version as available on this repository. You can try this version by either downloading the source or using this ppa:

It would help a lot if you could file a bug on ubuntu on this.

I am now trying with the latest version on your github repo. I still want to keep my original question:

So say last 5 previous command are smaller text, the current one is normal text.

There is some code in the works for this (screenkey --multiline) that switches on multiple lines split by carriage return, but it's still incomplete right now.
