Bar Commander

This program is no longer in active development.

Description:
BarCommander is a small, unobtrusive, yet powerful program, that allows one to execute commands on a small floating toolbar. BarCommander has quite a few useful features:

• Tiny footprint, in screen size, memory usage, and hard drive usage.
• Extensive command set, allowing easy access to command prompt, web pages, local directories and programs.
• Customizable interface, which docks, shrinks and remembers.
• Aliases can be set for any command.
• Auto-completion for all commands, aliases, and web pages etc.
• Fully extendable through plugins (see SDK for information).
• Source code freely distributed under the GPL license. Coded in C using the Win32API.

But a few things to try...

• Double click on the left hand gray bar to roll-up
• Aliases: @set google=www.google.co.nz
• Macros: #set macro1=www.slashdot.org&c:\program files\winamp\winamp.exe
• Type "listcommands" for a list of some other functions...
