Create special shortcurts with Tooler

I can see the first question coming up pretty quickly. Special shortcuts, what´s that ? I had some trouble finding a heading that describes tooler and I decided to stick with the description that the author of this nice little tool used. Tooler is able to create shortcuts in three locations: desktop, startmenu, programs menu. You can create eleven different shortcuts with it that might speed up things a little bit.

You can create shortcuts to run, disable or enable screensavers, eject and close the cdrom tray, set the volume, turn of the monitor, disable mouse and keyboard, shutdown and restart your system and finally logout the current user. No one needs all of those shortcuts but some might come in handy for some of you. I especially like the shortcuts that eject and close the cdrom tray, great if you use tools that automatically eject the cdrom tray. (like nero, after burning a cd or dvd).

Tooler is freeware and only 50K in size. Just unpack it somewhere and run it. No installation, no new registry entries, great little tool.
