Tools for making working with Windows more friendly. Under Windows 10, this must be run as Administrator to take effect.

Windows 7 or higher with Aero enabled. Doesn't work without Aero features (yet)

1. Replace Win-Tab with something more useful (a bit like expose, but with a significantly different way of packing and selecting). Note that each thumbnail has a single character before it's name/label. Press this key to select the window. Thumbnails are ordered left-to-right by z-order (same as alt-tab). Pop-up class windows (like VisualStudio uses) are not shown by default.

• Press quick-key to select a window and exit switcher
• Press tab without win to toggle popups in the switcher
• Press esc to exit switcher without changing window focus.

2. Focus-mode Shift-F12 dim other windows and make a best effort to prevent the focus-stealing that plagues Windows
3. Hide popups Win-Space toggles visibility of pop-up windows. This is handy when using Visual Studio's mess of a window set. Visibility toggle is conservative and system-wide. Stacking order is reversed on each display. Ctrl-Win-Space toggles translucency of popups, making them see-through.
4. Push-back Win-Escape pushes the current foreground window to the back of the stack. Useful when you've got several reference windows open.
5. Alignment Win-Alt-n for n = 1 to 9, position windows on their current screen.
6. Screen-switch Win-<arrow> move a window to a physical screen in that direction (does not wrap)
7. Fade everything Ctrl-Win-Space toggle a low alpha for all screens, so all windows are visible at once (doesn't work for VisualStudio)
8. Reference Window Win-Minus set the active window to be a reference - it will move to a screen beside the front-most window (works on multi-screen systems only)

There is a file typer that will play back keyboard events from the text of a file to the active window. Useful for VM driving and badly behaved UIs.

• Record to animated GIF - Overlay window with prep, record and stop buttons. Capture to an animated GIF.
• Keyboard navigation mode - display keyboard shortcuts to focus major aspects of the foreground window
• Maybe: a focus-set, where a few windows are tiled together and the main one can be rotated in.

• Capture screen needs to resize when switching dpi, or rescale resultant capture
• win-tab screen needs to detect changes to dektop layout (adding/removing screens)
• screen overlays (for focus/win-tab) need to be 1-per-screen to handle odd layouts. Interesting code features

Adapted from a few places; there is multi-monitor full screen overlay, hot-key action hooks, and a fast box packing algorithm.
