Easy stealth footswitch / pedal to minimize windows and show Desktop

Step 10 Done!! start hiding your windows!!! =P

Then connect you fabulous pedal to your computer, I used a PS2 to USB adapter, so don't need to reboot anything.

Once you reboot (or load the script by right clicking in the AutoHotKey icon in the taskbar) you will be able to hide ALL the windows with just the press of a pedal!!!

And, if you press the pedal while holding the shift key, all the windows will be restored.

Well, this is a very quick computer MOD, you can use another kind of pedals, or a nicer box, but the idea is to kep it very simple.

This is my first instructable, so please let me know what you think about it!!!

THANK YOU!!!

=)

P.S. I have a video with the pedal working, but I don't know how to upload the videos, any help?
