A real simple one

I want my windows to act like windows on Unix systems.
Specifically, I want to be able to keep inactive windows
(applications that I'm not using), in the foreground,
rather than having them automatically go to the background.

Thanks ahead of time.

Which type of unix system do you have in mind?
If you wish to have window activation work the
way many unix GUI's do then there is a powertool
downloadable called Xmouse. It should be available
on Microsofts page although it isn't officially supported.

If you wish that a certain window is always on top
then make/use a tool that sets the WS_TOPMOST
flag of the window or use SetWindowPos().
