PLEASE NOTE:

TWSC has been discontinued and transformed into a more generic application with the same and added functionality. Please check out the Session ShortCuts (SSC) page here:

However, if you for some reason wish to use TWSC, by all means do that, but it will not be bugfixed or updated.

Introduction

TWSC is a small application that gives you faster access and more overview of your open terminal windows (ssh, telnet, etc) and easy access to start up stored sessions.

Ever found yourself constantly hunting through the list of windows using alt-tab, just looking for that right one? ..Enter TWSC! *insert heroic music here*

Features:

- Activated via configurable hot-key or via tray-icon
- Supports SecureCRT, CRT and PuTTY.
- Imports sessions from SecureCRT 3.x and PuTTY.

And oh yeah.. It's totally free!

Downloading and installing

Just download and install! - v0.73b

You might want to check out v0.75b which fixes a bug with PuTTY sessions (see history below): Download 0.75b [No installer, just unzip manually]

Older versions can be found here.

If you are upgrading from an earlier version you might want to keep your .ini if you don't want to reconfigure everything again.

Configuring

Configuring is easily done through the "Settings" dialog:
