Could you elaborate? An "extension"? You mean its purely a command line
lang? If so, that's OK (even better -- less overhead, and easy to process
XyWrite commands, which are of course purely verbal). Usually there's a way
to launch objects or switch to objects from the command line (I mean the DOS
command line), and that's really all we need. Anybody know of a command-line
task switcher for Windows? Preferably that switches to a task (brings it into
focus or foreground) by referencing the "plain English" name of the process,
rather than say the process ID?
