How would I discover the memory used by an application through a python script?
Recently I've found myself testing an aplication in Froglogic's Squish, using Python to create test scripts. Just the other day, the question of how much memory the program is using has come up, and I've found myself unable to answer it. It seems reasonable to assume that there's a way to query the os (windows 7) API for the information,...

The new Windows 7 taskbar features, like jump lists, previews, etc. are really cool, and I want to allow my C# applications to use them.

Memory usage limits for programs on Windows (7)
I strongly expect this to end up as a duplication, but I can't seem to find it. I've got a C++ program that I normally run on 64-bit MacOSX SnowLeopard. When I try to run it on a 32-bit Windows 7, it runs out of memory. Probably, it really needs too much memory, but I want to make sure that I'm not missing some sort of option or anoth...

Determine if O/S is Windows 7...
Working on a project and need to be able to determine whether the O/S is Windows 7, Vista or default to XP.

Windows 7 style Notifications Flyouts in Delphi
Regarding Notification Area recommendations by Microsoft, I'm looking for ideas or a Delphi component to implement Notification Area Flyouts. The first "natural" idea is to use a standard Delphi form, but I'm facing two issues with it: I can't get the form border behavior using the standard "BorderStyle" property. Tried to "mimic" ...

How to debug with Visual C++ 6 on Windows 7 x64?
Surely the answer will be "you can't" or "use XP mode", but I'd like to know if it it possible. The issue I have is that whenever I debug some application and hit a breakpoint, when I stop the debugger the debuggee remains stuck. It can't be killed, I can't attach another debugger (it says it is already being debugged). It won't go away...
