What you suggest is non-standard in Windows, and besides I might 
not be the only user of the application.

I was thinking in doing pecisely what you suggest, writing a 
little function.

I like programming little apps now and then as a hobby, but 
giving up every time I encounter a difficulty is not for me. I 
was just asking in case some of the experienced D programmer here 
could recommend an efficient and preferably simple way to do it.
