Re: Task Bar real-estate

Not mentioned so far but I use Deweirdifyer. It can be hard to google a site to download from but it's on http://en.addons.pl/gimp.php

Deweirdifyer 2.1
Also know as Deweirdifier. A little plugin (addon) for Windows Gimp that gets rid of some of the weirdnesses and annoyances in the Windows version of Gimp. Adds a background window that sits under gimp. It removes the other ten million gimp windows from the task bar and the ALT-TAB menu and takes control of them itself. You can just alt tab off gimp and then alt tab back and all your windows appear as they were before. Only one icon on the taskbar, no more taskbar clutter and clicking that icon brings up *all* the gimp windows. Basically it makes GIMP work more like a single windows application than a bunch of windows. Gimp's modification GimpShop was based on this plugin.

  Wonderful, I went looking on every taskbar menu for
  such a setting, and instead it is a feature
  documented in "blunder upon it" mode. My how I hate
  Microsoft.

  Thanks, Tor, my taskbar is now two rows high, which
  I'm sure I'll rarely need but will find convenient
  on the odd occasion.
