hey there. does anyone have an .RC code example of shortcut3 in action that I could borrow for testing? I'm trying to get it working, but no matter what I do I get nothing to show.

I've been looking at Phar0e's shortcut3 tutorial, from August and I think I'm doing it right, but nothing is happening. :(

Shortcut3 != Taskbar3 no matter how you cut it. :p

maybe post your code here. it might be a small typo, which you as the writer just can't notice ;)
