I started a similar project a while ago but it's unfinished. Here's the
code.
All it does is to enumerate windows in a way similar to Bruce's
suggestion. It illustrates most of the window/process info that you can
get using the win.dll plugin. All info fields of each window are
concatenated into a string which is then stored in a glabal map
variable. The map is then saved to disk using vars.var_save from the
vars.dll plugin - found in the yahoo group files section. Run the script
and take a look at the file created by vars.dll to get a good idea of
the internal structure of the map variable. Info fields are separated by
character hex 0x02.
A companion script could read the map back from disk using
vars.var_restore and restart programs using the information included in
each field.
Pay attention to join folding lines below:
local hl=win.handlelist("*",0) ;; 0=visible, 1=hidden, 2=hidden no blank
caption
local ml=word(hl,0)
if(0==ml)
quit
local m="gv"++scriptname ;; global map name
do("global "++m++"=map.create("++ml++")")
local i h s
local n=esc(?"0x02",0)
for(i=1; i<ml; i=i+1)
h=word(hl,i)
s = win.caption(h) ;;+
++n++win.exename(h) ;;+
++n++win.exepath(h) ;;+
++n++win.getprocessid(h) ;;+
++n++win.class(h) ;;+
++n++win.maxxed(h)++win.minned(h)++win.rolled(h)++win.topmost(h)
++win.trayminned(h) ;;+
++n++win.left(h)++","++win.top(h)++","++win.width(h)
++","++win.height(h) ;;+
++""
do(m++"["++i++"]="++?'?"'++s++?'"')
endfor
vars.save_var(m)
quit
