It`s a small program that replaces the Window`s Alt+Tab, with a cool and very functional Panther looking one
*** How to use it
1. Just double-click the program and it will go into the system tray.
2. Hit alt+tab and you will see the task switcher. All the explorer instances are called finder and I define some other frequently used programs in the “switcher.ini” file.
3. Some programs may have ugly windows default icons and strange names like ***.dll or ***.ocx. Define the labels and icons in “switcher.ini” if you want.
4. You can exclude some programs from appearing in the task list by adding it under [exclusion] section of “switcher.ini”
5. If you want to quit the program, just right click on the system tray icon.

Nice app. Looks great.
There’s some delay after hitting Alt+Tab before the switcher shows up. Also, after hitting Alt+Tab, the currently active window is selected in Panther Switcher, while normal behavior of the windows switcher is that Alt+Tab selects the next window by default. If you just make these two small changes and it’ll be awesome.
On a side note, I can’t seem to get my switcher display window names under the icons. Not a big deal, but it’ll be good to have.
This program is not so good, though I found much better. You can see the window or program content (like what u are editing in Photoshop CS2), when switxhing to the application or window. That program is called “Task switcher” or something like that, I don’t remember exactly
its good.. just for some reason my icons show distortioned, like 16px resized to 48px.. but i like configuration, renaming and exclusion options.plus pngs can be replaced to fit desktop and stuff
can someone plz help me fix the icon thing?
I like this app. It works pretty well, it’s small and you don’t need to install it. that’s great!
the problem i have is that when i switch to a maximized window it will be restored down. it is wierd. i hope you can fix that till next version
KEEP DOING THE GOOD JOB!!!
Actually, there’s one more problem: the switcher doesn’t show iTunes. I don’t understand why ‘cos it’s not on the exclusion list. Does anyone have any solution?
Thanx!
I think it is good, but mine doesn’t have the same skin as yours.
