Yawn. I had an add in under DOS that did this better.


Yeah, sure you did. I guess you had an add-in that made DOS multitask as
well..

That is right.

So this non-GUI multitask enabler for DOS is what you think is better than
Exposé? LOL.

In '87-'91 I was using an Amiga, which could multitask properly. You could
even scroll up an application over another, *which was using a DIFFERENT
resolution*. I don't think any other computer ever since has been able to
do this.

Switcher is free utility for Windows Vista (running Aero) that lets
you arrange the windows on your screen in different ways. The
default view is the "tile view," which arranges the windows so that
you can see all of them, even across multiple monitors. Another
view, called the "dock view" magnifies one window and arranges the
rest along the side. There is also a grid view, which is a good one
to use if you are also going to use the number shortcuts for the
windows (the first 9 windows can be activated by pressing the
respective number on the keyboard).

Your desktop can be treated as a window, too. In this new version of
Switcher, the windows now have a customizable background color,
border, and a label which can display any of the following: the
filename of the application, window icon, the number shortcut, the
memory used in megabytes, the process name and the window title.
Other new features include filters to help you narrow down the
windows that appear, the ability to close windows during a session,
smoother animations, and additional keyboard shortcuts. To learn
more about Switcher, check out Bao's Blog. To download the program,
visit the Switcher website here.

I smell scamware.
