I was just wondering if there was any neato utility out there like
justclick or the like that allows switching between applications wher
the application being switched out is automatically hidden as the other
application is switched in?
Sounds good to me! :-P
regards
Phil

At least that beats using the menu. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |John Gibson Princeton Univ.

Yes, I know the option key will hide applications as you switch from one application to the other via windows and pull down menus. What I would like is a hot key or function key that would flick through all the running applications and hide the ones I am leaving. reagards Phil -- __________ /\ _______\ ================================================================ \ \ \____ / Philip Wild / phil@cutmcvax.cs.curtin.edu.au \ \ \/ / / Dept.

It's called Switch and the latest version I've seen includes the hide feature (v 1.2) I found the original version in comp.sys.mac.apps and the author just mailed me the new version hot off the press (or whatever) The hiding feature works by holding the option key down while clicking the menu-bar icon. Although Switch does have a hot-key switching feature, the hiding doesn't work with it. Hey, I like it. (and it works with file-sharing, for those of you who've noticed that some of these utilities don't) -- ================================================================= Ray Zimmerman | Electrical Engineering 369 Engineering & Theory Center | Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853 | zman@ee.cornell.edu =================================================================
