Harry, Thanks for this. I downloaded it and gave it a try ... perhaps naively ... it opened launching "PTBG" in Activity Monitor ... but there was nothing on the Dock and although I could see a window I couldn't find anyway of switching to it ... I could click the sausage shaped button at the top right corner - for hiding and revealing the Toolbar - that WORKED! ... but I couldn't get it to take me seriously anywhere else ... no matter how much I clicked, double-clicked, control- clicked - launched Activity Monitor Info panels ... nothing seemed to get me onto the window. In the end I used the Activity Monitor Get Info window to Force-Quit it ...
