#       Pydeme is designed to reveal all the currently running windows on
#   a Windows machine and allow the user to hide, reveal, close, force close
#   or get info about them.
#       This is a Python port of a C++ port of a C program I wrote years
#   ago, mainly for the purpose of destroying Ad windows embedded in programs
#   and people's Start Buttons :).  I'm releasing it into the wild incase
#   anyone finds it useful/educational.

This program requires:

* Python (tested on 2.5 and 2.6)
* pyHook
* PyQt4
* pywin32 (included in Activision's Python Distributions)

Alternatively, py2exe can be used to build it into a stand alone executable with:
python setup.py py2exe

Buttons:
Hide - Hide's the selected window
Show - Show's the selected window
Lock/Unlock - Add/Remove the selected window from the list of windows to Hide/Show when pressing the hotkey (ctrl-H currently)
Info - Open the Info Window
Send Destroy - Send a WM_DESTROY message to the window
KiLL - Force a window to close by Re-parenting it to a new window and closing.  This can have unpredictable results (crashes).
Refresh - refresh the window tree
Show Hidden - Toggle whether to show only visible windows.

Todo:
Make hotkey changable.
