Task Commander
$19.95 - Resort Labs

Modern operating systems offer many cool interface features to make our lives easier. However, the ever-increasing number of various programs we use on a daily basis makes the task of managing open windows, running programs and processes way too complicated and time-consuming.

As our taskbars get overloaded with buttons and panels, our Quick Launch panels stretch to galactic sizes. We tend to get completely lost in windows, buttons, sidebars and other controls, all designed initially to provide better accessibility. No wonder this happens...we have more memory, more processing power, better multitasking and voila...dozens of open windows clutter our desktops! So, is there a solution?

In fact, there is! Introducing Task Commander by Resort Labs, the unique Windows task management and application launchermaintenance solution capable of freeing up valuable desktop, taskbar and Quick Launch panel space as well as providing one-click access to your favorite applications and files!

Task Commander installs a tiny icon on your taskbar. As soon as your mouse cursor hovers over it, a menu appears containing the most popular and recently used applications that can be launched with just a click. This menu is highly customizable, allowing you to create your own convenient data access menu. In addition, the program adds a "minimize to tray" option and other cool features to each window on the system. This way, it's easy to minimize, roll-up, roll-down and/or hide any windows or groups of windows.

The application features an Alt-Tab task switcher replacement allowing for total control over application management on-the-fly. Built-in process and memory usage monitor displays the most resource-hungry apps and helps prevent lock-ups and slowdowns. Tight integration with desktop context menu, taskbar, IE and Windows Explorer makes advanced applications management universally available system-wide!

Linspect Commander
$0 - Linspect

Linspect Commander is a software utility for Windows. It allows you to execute commands on remote Linux or Unix servers over an SSH-secured connection without logging in and running the commands manually. Linspect Commander can be useful for system administrators and programmers who often need to restart various server-side components (servers, daemons or other running programs) in order to do the development/debugging. It comes really handy even if you are setting up a Linux/Unix system and need to restart e.g. Samba, Tomcat, or the whole server to apply the new configuration. Using Linspect Commander you can set up commands you use most frequently and run them just by choosing a server from the list and clicking a desired command button. Upon executing a command you will also see the output it produces in the console window. This way you can easily find out e.g. what is the current status of a running server system (who is logged in, what is in the access log etc.). You can also customize each command and save your preferences for future use. Linspect Commander does not keep the connection open. It connects to a server just when you execute a command. It waits for the output (or for a timeout of 15 seconds) and disconnects from the server. Linspect Commander allows you to execute commands on remote Linux/Unix systems by clicking buttons on your Windows desktop. It is secure and easy to use.

Total Commander
$34 - C. Ghisler & Co.

Total Commander (former Wincmd) is an Explorer replacement for
Windows. This is the 32 bit version for Windows 9x, ME, NT, 2000,
and XP. A 16 bit version is also available as tc16v656.zip.
Total Commander handles archives like subdirectories. It supports
ZIP/ARJ/LHA/RAR/UC2/TAR/GZ/CAB/ACE archives, and has
an internal ZIP-compatible packer. The search function allows
to search for files inside archives, even for text. A command
line helps starting programs with parameters, and a fully
configurable button bar allows to launch programs and inter-
nal commands. The built-in viewer can show files in text,
hex, binary, image and multimedia format. The 32 bit version
supports Drag&Drop from and to explorer/desktop, delete to
the recycle bin, and Explorer style context menus/property
sheets. FTP servers on the Internet can be accessed like
local drives. A configurable directory hotlist (bookmarks)
and history list make directory navigation easier. The sync
function allows to synchronize two complete directory trees,
and the compare function shows the difference of two binary
or text files highlighted side by side. The new parallel port
connection works between any combination of Windows 95/98/ME,
Windows NT 4, Windows 2000/XP, Windows 3.1 and even DOS through
a separate server.
