TaskModule
This might be old news, but I found this just a minute ago.
TaskModule
It puts a draggable button on your desktop that, when clicked, will display a list of your tasks. All you can customize on it is the colors, not bitmaps, etc. However the source is included if someone felt like changing that. It says it works up to 2000 but its working on XP over here.

finally, litestep functionality for explorer... lol... it's funny sometimes, the amount of features that i take totally for granted when creating my litestep themes, forgetting that in explorer you need another proggie for that.
cool find johnnyfist.

In explorer you don't need another proggie for that, it has a taskbar

... if I'm not mistaken, this little tool was used mostly by LS users to have a taskswitch, and if not (how long does LS have something like this ?), it was used by users of other alternative shells around. Useful if you don't have a taskbar in explorer though, on the list, dunno why it wasn't listed before

Plastic, the popup comes with a *PopupTasks section now. Its part of the right click popup by default and its been like that for as long as I can remember.
I think if you're using explorer this would come in handy if you're too lazy to move your cursor all the way to the edge of the screen.

yes... !popuptasks.... which you can also throw as a command from a shortcut, or from a mouse button. for example, my middle mouse button click causes a nice neat menu of all running tasks...
from what i've seen of other shells, ( i umm.. kinda collect them.. currently have almost everyone ever coded that i can get to run on my box, from icefire to graphite to project flash... ) the first important functionality was to create some sort of task lister.
now what i want is a alternative alt+tab switcher... one that you can skin or at least hack...

methodik, you seen this alt+tab switcher that Spyder found? It's been listed in the Japanese forum, not sure if it's translated yet, but sure sounds nice :

You might need one that's shell specific, for LS or something, not sure, as I often bark up the wrong tree alot,but thought this little app was pretty interesting
YAY for Spyder
