In depth
A closer look at EscapeClose Pro
EscapeClose Pro is a tiny utility, allowing you to close or minimize the active window by pressing the Esc button. And now you can hide active window. Thus you can see it neither in the TaskBar nor in the Task Manager list (Ctrl+Alt+Del) nor in the list opening by pressing Alt+Tab. Or, to work more carefully, it can position the mouse cursor in the upper right-hand corner of the active window, where the Close button is located. Now you can use a mask to select files in standard Windows Explorer by pressing the keys *, + and - on the numeric keypad! (like old Norton Commander or Total Commander or FAR). It is especially useful when you are working with dozens of files and folders at once. It has 9 working modes, stays in the system tray, support of exceptions, can maximize or minimize the any active window when the F11 button is pressed (like MS Internet Explorer), can automatically run at Windows startup, can temporally stop the screensaver start (e.g. to watch a movie). Using this program, you will make fewer movements, which will increase the productivity of your work.
