-The `:Fullscreen` command toggles Vim between normal and [full-screen mode](http://peterodding.com/code/vim/shell/screenshots/). It's mapped to `<F11>` by default, see `g:shell_mappings_enabled` if you don't like this.

+### The `:Fullscreen` command
 
-When you enter full-screen mode the main menu, toolbar and tabline are all hidden (see `g:shell_fullscreen_items` if you want to change this) and when possible Vim's [GUI window] [gui] is switched to real full-screen mode (hiding any [taskbars, panels or docks](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taskbar)). When you leave full-screen Vim's main menu, toolbar and tabline are restored and the [GUI window] [gui] is switched back to normal mode.
