  • Irritating Window minimisation thing

    Okay, so I want to minimise my windows instantly. I.e. click the top left - button, see the next screen below with no retarded "excuse me while I disappear to the tray" nonsense. How do I do this?
    Many thanks.

Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James Napier

      I distinctly appreciate your biting sense of humour, MarkG.

        Windowskey+M ?

        (actually I have no idea what you want, this shortkey minimizes all windows though)
        Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

          I want that, except for single windows (e.g. 1 word document or 1 browser page with 500 tabs inside).

            Display properties, switch off the animations. I think it was there. Or was in in TweakUI?

                Opera users are so desperate...
