ShowDesktop

This is my first plugin and consequently is as simple as it seems. This plugin will show your desktop (in effect minimizing all other windows).

Install this by extracting the contents into your FARR's plugin folder.
To use it, type
sd
and hit enter.

The desktop icon does not work nor do I have permission to use it, but I was thinking of something like this http://ssx.deviantar...esktop-Icon-81718627

I think I might consolidate this plugin with the WindowManagement one provided by jgpaiva found here https://www.donation...dex.php?topic=9368.0

EDIT:
I did a board search and didn't find anything that actually did this so I decided to release it. Apologies if this is a copy.

I don't want to be a drag, but isn't Win+D a shortcut to show the desktop?
It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious.

Win+M also minimizes all open windows.
