mouser, just following up the request made in irc: use Scroll-Lock to make Farr stay open, regardless of the default setting.

Could it possibly be an option instead of a done deal?

modified an old script by wr975 to temporarily keep Farr always-on-top but this doesn't work for the "stay open" thingy. just copy the script & add it to your Farr toolbar.

; Adapted for Farr toolbar

#SingleInstance force
#NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
