[6:00 AM] ProgramSwitcher Update Adds Translucence by Staff ClaireWare Software has upgraded the program switching utility, Program Switcher, to version 5.1. Program Switcher allows users to switch between actively running application, or launch application, using simple keystroke commands. According to ClaireWare: Program Switcher is a convenient timesaving control panel that allows you to switch between the applications running on your System 7.1 or greater Macintosh via a simple two-key keystroke. It was inspired by the same function found in "Windows," but has been improved and transformed into a unique and fully configurable control panel that makes switching applications on the Macintosh as simple as pressing a couple of keys. Key features include: The ability to switch, launch, quit, or hide any application with a simple keystroke The ability to switch, hide, or close windows with a simple keystroke Full support for the latest MacOS technologies, such as Appearance, Navigation Services, and Multiple Users. Elegant, unobtrusive interface that makes the seemingly simple task of switching applications truly simple and easy to do. Version 5.1.0 now includes an option to make the switching window translucent - just like MacOS X! It also fixes the following bugs over v5.0.1: Sluggish control panel response has now been remedied Fixed "error -30585" message when pressing tab key Program Switcher is available as shareware for US$10.
