Customizing the Geek Window
Geek Window provides a customizable overlay window for monitoring system information such as keys, clicks, download, upload software, etc. With the Geek window, you can create a personalized, always-on-top overlay that displays your WhatPulse statistics while using other applications on your computer. You can move the geek window, customize transparency, and choose the background and font color. As the name suggests, it is designed for the geek in you.
