Winsplit Revolution – A window placement program

Just came across the extremely useful Winsplit Revolution, a small system tray based program that promised to allow people to arrange their windows any which way they want.

It works exceptionally well, allowing me to arrange programs in a similar manner as above, in literally no more than a few seconds. It works well with dual monitors, letting you push windows in-between monitors and arranging them in a few key taps.

The best bit? It's available under the Creative Commons license.

**Edit**

After further use this program just gets better and better. It's useful even if you don't happen to have massive monitors.

The only thing I would say against the app is that anything with Revolution in its name loses brownie points, and the program configurations are not very well laid out, being separated in a cascading menu as shown below.

It would be simpler and more useful if all the configuration options were in one configuration panel with tabs or similar.
