Japanese developments
Recently
spyder started posting about Japanese tools on the msgboard. Translation of Bottom (below) was a direct result of that, here's what followed:
- English translation of two tools by nhoj at system13, spyder dug up:
"Joe" is an "alt + tab extender", taking over that dialog (you just check the screenshot).
"WipeOut" is one of those never seen before things
. Displays a line (color, width, alpha options) at screenedge(s). You just drag it over part of desktop you want to uncover. Windows, dialogs get dragged along, so you can click the icons/desktop underneath. When doing so, windows take their place again, like nothing happened. Very unique!
- There's more contacts growing, and we decided to give a forum, dedicated to bringing Japanese tools over to "the other side" a new try. That forum is here; be sure to read introduction too. We hope to see some people helping out; you're invited!
- This also marks spyder joining VP crew, so that's another welcome
.
- And on a related note, hand reports a new version of Y'z Dock, 0.60 Beta - check out changes there.
More coming, we hope

Joe sounds good, as does WipeOut. Unfortunately the latter doesn't work on that crud NT I'm stuck with here at work (don't know why the boss persists on using that).
Good finds and welcome Mr Arachnid.

WipeOut is excellent

Too bad it doesn't work well with WindowFX shadows, though :/
JOe == God.
thanks crae
