Hi,

I just accidently discovered a new (at least to me) SC feature: when you press ESC it's minimized to the tray. That's nice, but not that helpful if you are renaming a file and just want to abort the renaming - by pressing ESC.
:)

Could SC maybe detect if you are renaming files and then don't minimize? Or something else?
Thank you.

Good point..
Perhaps i should just get rid of the escape-to-minimize behavior - thinking about it now it seems a bit unintuitive and likely to cause confusion in other cases.

Especially since you can assign your own hotkey for minimizing and retrieving the program.  Recognition of Windows key would be nice too - I think that was mentioned somewhere before....
