Using the left sidebar as content area

If I read you correctly, you would like the left sidebar to have the ability to collapse when not in use. This is possible and I would also like to add this feature to the next release.

I will have to schedule this so I wouldn't expect this change any time in the next week or so. I would also be open to receiving a patch.

If you just wanted to remove the left sidebar, you can delete the following code.

		<div id="left-sidebar">
			<?php if ($left) { ?>
				<?php print $left ?>
			<?php } ?>
		</div>

Then adjust the style sheet to expand the main content area.

#latest-post {
	float: left;
	width: 350px;
}

There may be a few other things you need to add, subtract, and adjust.

Changes in dev version.
