Thanks Rod.

The rotor I can easily do; the other request, well ... there's a problem.

I don't use window titles because titles can change in a lot of programs
depending on what you have open, or some other status info.  I use instead
their window handles, which aren't permanent.

Window Manager has this same problem, and GW uses a combination of title or
class or both (letting the user choose).  I'll have another look at it,
since it's trying to do what you are requesting; maybe I can do it their
way.

Thanks, and Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Chip

Hi Chip,

Yes, thank you.  I have installed it, and I like it.  It's a nice piece 
of work.

In terms of additional features I would like to see, the ability to 
permanently save hot keys for commonly-used applications, like my email 
client, would be great; also, it would be nice to have a rotor hot key, 
to be able to cycle through the windows in the app's list of saved 
windows.  However, as the app stands now, it is very useful to me, and 
I'm using it daily.

Many thanks, and Merry Christmas, from everyone in the Great White 
North, Canada,

Rod
