Custom Features

  • Massively faster list display, especially with large number of open windows/processes.
  • Move all un-activated top-most ("always on top") windows to the bottom of the list.
  • Wider list.
  • Numerical quick access - Alt+number for easy switching to any of the first 10 applications.
    • Number hint for shortcut displayed in list, both filtered and sorted.
  • Sort list by process name or title via tray icon menu or shortcut keys in-live list
  • Tray icon single click open
  • List items context menu with options: close, run another instance (duplicate) or bring to front
  • Home/End/PageUp/PageDown keys navigation in the list
  • VIM-like navigation keys Alt+j Alt+k. Alt+Up/down is working now too for when you opened the application with alt+ shortcut pressed down.

Tips

  • You can filter by process name (.exe file) with the "." character:
    • "text." filters for processes with "text" in their process name.
    • "text.readme" filters for processes with "text" in their process name, and "readme" in their window title.
    • "." is a shortcut that filters for only processes that match the current foreground window process.
    • ".readme" filters for only processes that match the current foreground window process, and "readme" in their window title.
