@SwIt s.r.l. has released @Kill v. 1.0, a freeware Windowsutility that lets external applications and batch files close Window applications bykilling their windows.
Unlike other killing utilities it works also with hidden and system windows (forexample trayed applications) and you can specify only a PART of the window caption.
For example, If you've opened three Windows named "Notepad - first.txt", "Notepad -second.txt" and "Notepad - third.txt", you can close all three in once by specifyingonly "Notepad" (or only one of them by specifying "second.txt")
You can also export a list of all the opened windows into a text file, so that anexternal application can know in advance if a specific application is on execution,so it can decide whether to kill it or not (and which is the exact title tospecify).
This is possible because @KILL can work also as a command line utility, by passingit some parameters, so it can be invoked by external applications and batch files.
@Kill v. 1.0 runs under Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP/2003 and can be used for freeeither for private purposes or in commercial organizations. For more information,contact aSwIt s.r.l., Via Cime di Lavaredo 30, 45100 Rovigo (RO) Italy. Email:info@aswit.com
