Dennis, I am using windows 98, ie 5, and the display is set to 256 colors
at a resolution of 800x600. I say this as the jfw.exe file in the taskbar
gets the focus whenever programs are closed down. I can tap the left mouse
button to get to the desktop and have even considered putting
LeftMouseButton () in every AutoFinishEvent () but do not want to do this
because when switching from ap to ap I think the left mouse button script
would run and you don't know what would happen. Btw, the MinimizeAllApps
script puts the focus on the jfw.exe file. I think that making jfw.exe
reside in the systray may solve that problem or perhaps hiding it altogether
would be even better. You could still get at it with the Insert+J command.
Does this make since to you?
