NANY 2016 Release: Move Aside Please

This might be of interest. It is something similar that I cribbed together from someone else's existing script(s) a while back. I've used it for a few years. It's a toggle to be activated for the in-focus window you are working on. After activation, moving the mouse to the edge of the in-focus window then makes it momentarily fully transparent (invisible), so that you can look at any windows underneath it. Moving the mouse back to where the in-focus window was then returns that window to full opacity.
It could probably be of more use if the focus could also be changed so you could (say) copy text from a layer exposed below, and then return to the  in-focus screen you started with to (say) paste the text - but that's probably a bit hairy, if not redundant - given Alt-Tab.

Yes, even Park Cursor Aside can be achieved by similar code. Actually I make this type of raw codes and use them as and when I need something that I can not find from net. Afterwards when I feel that it may help other too, I try to convert it in a proper app and put in NANY.
