GigaTask - We've produced a lot of well-known task-switchers, from StarTap to GigaBar to iTask. GigaTask is the latest, and delivers the most utility for the least user effort of them all.
GigaTask has all of the built-in functionality of GigaBar, but is no more difficult to configure than iTask:
Switch Tasks
Close Programs
Close All Programs
Launch Programs
Launch Settings Applets
Many Internal Functions:
Screen Capture
OK and Cancel
Display Off
Unit Off
Ctrl-Key combinations:
Cut, Copy, Paste
Home, End
Select All, etc.
Skinnable
First, it gives you control of what's running on your machine: you can bring any program into the foreground, close tasks, close everything, etc.
Next, GigaTask also has three directly accessible menus. From these, you can launch programs, and use any of GigaTask's long list of internal functions.
All of this functionality can be available from a button, as with iTask, or from the TaskBar, like the menu shown above, so that it's instantly available all the time. Give GigaTask a little space at the right end of the TaskBar, and your machine will be way more capable!
The menus can even be assigned to the hardware buttons, without losing their existing functions (Calendar, etc.). With just two button presses, you can do just about anything!
GigaTask is also skinnable, so that its windows, menus, icons, etc. can all be customized to fit the look that you want. Skins are delivered as compressed zip files, and you can even pick and choose: take the menu look from one skin, and the icons from another. It's up to you!
GigaTask is free to download and try, though many of its functions expire at the end of each month.
