For all of you still using Windows at times (thanks, Adobe..) and wanting that basic feature. DeskPins can be used to make any application topmost, that is, to keep it above all other windows. Just grab a pin from the DeskPins icon in the system notification area and click on any window. I really like this tiny software that does exactly what it says and should, no more no less and super lightweigt. I have not audited the source code at the moment so use at your own risk. Development seems to have stopped around 2015.
I am not the author of this code. The original author is (Elias Fotinis)[https://efotinis.neocities.org/index.html]. I retrieved the source code from the author's website currently availabe at this (link)[https://efotinis.neocities.org/deskpins/index.html].
Unknown; author mentions 'open source' on his website, so whatever he means by that.
#Original README.md incl. in author's source code below
This is the source code of DeskPins, a Windows program that can make any application window top-most.
This program was inspired by a discussion in the greek Usenet groups (grk.*). It was initially written in 2002 for Windows 95/98 using Visual Studio 6 and still works in modern Windows versions.
- Visual Studio 2008 or later
- Boost
- eflib (my custom C++/WinAPI framework; will soon be made available)
