HOTKEYS:

Default: Alt+Tab - move forwards in window stack Alt+Shift+Tab - move backwards in window stack Alt+Esc - cancel switching window Mouse wheel over the taskbar scrolls the list - Middle button selects a window in this mode. Window Groups can be assigned hotkeys to load the group/cycle through the windows.

EVENTS:

Double-click a row to select that item and switch to it.

Type first letter of program's title to cycle through them while still holding Alt

Columns can be sorted by clicking on their titles.

Tabs (window groups) can be re-ordered by drag-and-drop.

Right-Click (context menu): Basic hotkey support for switching to specific windows (using window groups and adding window classes) Exclude (and un-exclude) specific windows and specific .EXEs - see "Window Groups" below. Window Groups - define lists of windows to easily switch between only showing certain apps. Manage groups of windows and processes (min/max all, close all, etc).

Close windows: Alt+= "hotkey" - toggle windows AlwaysOnTop status Alt+Middle mouse - close window under the mouse pointer in the Alt-Tab listview. Alt+\ "hotkey" - close selected window (while list is displayed) Alt+/ "hotkey" - close ALL windows whose EXE matches that of the selected entry (while list is displayed) Process menu entry - end selected process or all instance of the EXE in the list.

SETTINGS:

See "; USER EDITABLE SETTINGS:" section near top of source code.

TO EXIT: Choose Exit from the system tray icon's menu.

NOTE: Stroke-It (and maybe other mouse gesture programs) can cause the context menu to be shown twice/problematic. Solution: exclude the program within the gesture recognition program (window title = Alt-Tab Replacement).
