Another ten small programs that are comfortable

Hello.
In this post I will describe several small and convenient windows-programs, besides absolutely free. The previous post caused a heated discussion, as a result of which, as usual, the truth was born :)
So, this post - a tribute to the grateful habrasoobschestvu - in the comments on the bits gathered useful program, which, perhaps, we would never have heard. I apologize in advance to the people who offered their programs that were not included in this review - there were many utilities in the kamenta that duplicated each other’s functions one way or another, and trying them all out, comparing and sorting them out is a task for Wikipedia. :)
Well, from words to deeds.

01) Minimize the window in the header and not only - a lot of opportunities in exchange for 90 kilobytes
02) Minimize the window to tray by right clicking on the "cross"
03) Create virtual desktops - now with the help of a free program
04) Move the buttons of the windows on the taskbar as tabs in the browser
05) Sticky notes on the desktop - when you do not want to bring in ToDo
06) Mini-console for quick launch of programs for aliases
07) Instant computer search - hard disk indexing software
08) Copy the text from anywhere , even from pictures
09) create a storage of notes with attachments through a quick and free program
10) manage the clipboard - now you can remember more!

WinRoll


The program manages the windows, and it does it so efficiently that I figured out the program without even looking at its options. Right-clicking on the title collapses the window into the title (incorrect definition of the header width in Google Chrome is noted), by the middle click displays a menu that allows you to put the window on top of all other windows, minimize, maximize, close all visible windows, and remove them to tray or do transparent.

84Kb. Free (as opposed to the one I described in the previous AltDesk review), an open-source resource. Thank you donetss

Rbtray


Allows you to minimize the window to tray by right clicking on the "cross".
No interface, just what you really need :) It’s problematic to create a screenshot for such a function :)

111kb, thanks to Wentix

virtuawin


Program to create desktops. The default control is not very intuitive, but it is interesting - there are four desktops, on which of them the user is located, we are informed by a painted corner of the tray icon. To switch to another desktop, you need to use the Win + combination of the required cursor key.

Distributed under the GNU GPL. There is a 138kb portable version. Thank you unhappy

Taskbar shuffle


The program is used to drag and drop “buttons” of programs into the taskbar in the same way as dragging bookmarks in the browser.
[UPD] In addition, you can drag programs to the tray, as well as close the "tabs" on the taskbar with the middle button, as in browsers

Free, 631kb, thanks Auren

Stickies


Notes on the desktop c heap of options. There is nothing to talk about, you just need to try :)

Homepage www.zhornsoftware.co.uk/stickies , thanks linuxoid
978kb + 105kb Russian dll. Donateware, i.e. free, while collecting donations.

Slickrun


Pop-up mini-console, through which you can run the program.
When installing shakes about half a meter from an Internet. [UPD] These additional kilobytes turned out to be the Delphi Library, which is written on the program’s website.
A tactile and inconspicuous console appears, which shows the clock when you move the cursor away. Hooray! I remove the standard win-hours.
It starts, as you can see from the help, on windows + q. First you need to add words that will run the program. Everything is intuitive and quite comfortable.

Size 175kb. thank you pongo

Dk finger


Finds any file on the hard drive for a couple of seconds due to preliminary indexing, however, quite fast.

963kb, free, thanks Pongo

Kleptomania


The program allows you to select text anywhere on the screen, including areas that usually cannot be selected using the mouse, such as data columns in a text editing program, a table in a file manager, or an error message from any program.
When you first start indexes installed in the system fonts in order to recognize any text.
Unfortunately, the program considers the number of fonts to be more than a hundred large and indexes only the first hundred.
Before use, you need to tick “Smart choice, otherwise it will not work :)
And one more minus - the icons that fell into the "capture field" after such a tricky selection warped for a moment (more precisely, until the user chooses the menu item offered by Kleptomania.
Initially, the Russian-language program, because intuitive :)

Free, 436kb, thanks kbr

Flashnote


Convenient and small program for tree (and not only) notes-notes
It hangs in the tray and is shown by alt-s (I was offended by the statement that AIMP took the hotkey for myself and advised me to look into the settings). Create notes by pressing Ctrl + n, call them and start writing right away. Nothing extra.

Homepage softvoile.com/flashnote/download.php , 860kb
thank you splashbuster

CLCL


This is a clipboard caching program - it remembers everything that was in the buffer and allows you to work with it - save, display a pop-up window on Alt + C (I again have a conflict with AIMP'om :() and much more.

Homepage www.nakka.com/soft/clcl/index_eng.html
Free, 145kb (Russian version), thanks Sinister
