- .description
- WindowKey is yet another input helper program. The job of those programs
- is well known: they activate, bring to front, push to back, zoom, etc...
- any window or screen (in the Intuition sense of the word) on user request.
-
- Lots of programs exist that do that, including Commodores'FKey provided on
- the workbench disk, but none of them had a user interface as powerful and
- were as flexible as WindowKey. The interface for WindowKey was directly
- reproduced from that of my other program Injector. The reason why I chose
- to make two different programs instead of including the features of
- WindowKey in Injector is that you can use either program without the other,
- which sounds quite normal since their jobs are completely different (this
- is one reproach to other input helper programs which tend to do everything
- and end up doing nothing).
-
- Another reason to the existence of WindowKey is the possibility to control
- Intuition only from the keyboard, instead of having to hunt for a mouse
- hidden under a pile of paper when wanting to change the active window.
-
- To make this work, WindowKey has its own language, made of keywords, with
- or without arguments enclosed in parentheses. You will have to read the
- references sections for further informations.
