Controling Windows from keyboard now suck. To maximize current window I should to use mouse or press combo like "ALT+SPACE, then X" or "ALT+SPACE, then UP, UP, then ENTER".

Please add "Maximize/Restore" and "Minimize" windows action, which could be bind for some hotkeys. For example, CTRL+WIN+"+" to "Maximize/Restore" and CTRL+WIN+"-" to "Minimize" action.

New actions are for Keyboard Wizards!

I've added it to our feature request list and we'll see what we can do. Windows 7 actually has WIN+Up and WIN+Down shortcut keys built in for maximize and minimize, but perhaps we can add it in so that XP and Vista users can achieve the same functionality

HotKeys have been added for Maximize, Minimize, and Restore in 3.4.0 Beta 15. They don't have key combinations assigned to them by default, but you can set them to whatever you like

I'd try it.
Could Maximize action be like maximize-restore? I mean if active window is already maximized, it restores it state to normal.

I mean one toogle action instead of 2 separated.

We like to keep HotKey actions definite so that there's no question as to what the HotKey will do, so for now we'll leave them as separate ones. We will keep it in mind for the future though.

Thanks!
