Yet more windows short cuts

Another list of useful shortcuts. I should try to combine these into one cheat sheet one day, but I am still learning them as I go along.

Tabbing between windows

First and foremost, we all know Alt-Tab (or the fancier Win-Tab) cycles through the open windows on your taskbar. This is fine if you can hold down the Alt key. However, I have not found how to hold a key down using Windows Speech Recognition. This is extremely frustrating as it makes Alt-Tab completely useless for users of WSR with more than two windows. It's taken me 3 months to discover these two commands:

Ctrl-Alt-Tab

Opens the tabbing interface as for Alt-Tab, but keeps it open. This means you can then cycle through the options by simply pressing Tab or by using the arrow keys. You then need to confirm your selection by pressing Enter

Ctrl-Win-Tab

As above, but using the fancier Win-Tab interface.
