Edgeknock is a launcher of applications for Windows. You can start applications registered in it by three ways: "to knock the edge of the screen two times" (I named this gesture 'edgeknock'), "to touch the cursor to the corner of the screen", and "to type hotkeys".
By knocking operation, you can launch applications quickly because you don't need to push buttons and to use popup menus. And, registering applications to lauch by touching corners and hotkey operations, you can launch them quickly as they are resident programs even if they don't have a residence function. In addition, Edgeknock is very compact.

When you start this application, you can see 'Edgeknock' in a small window, and it disappears soon. Try to knock a one-third from top of left of the screen edge two times. If you can launch 'Calc', you did it. And for samples, you can also launch 'Calc' when you move the cursor to the left-bottom corner of the screen, and when you type Ctrl + Shift + C.
To customize the sensibility of the knocking and what applications are launched, you need to edit the INI file. This application monitor the edit of INI file, and it automatically reflect the change after saving of INI file. To stop this application, execute "Edgeknock.exe" again.
