Brass is a "dynamic Windows enhancement tool". Sure, you've probably seen other programs that say they're plugin enhancer tools so you might be wondering what makes Brass so powerful... Unlike other tools Brass doesn't just put fancy displays on your desktop (but it's very good at doing it!). Brass works with Windows + other apps at a level far deeper than other tools. Brass is a system enhancer, not just a desktop enhancer! Ever wanted to skin the task bar so that it has a image background? Brass can do it. How about displaying your Outlook data and getting new email, without even loading Outlook? Brass can do that too. Want to have an RSS news feed directly from a website displayed on your desktop? Yep, Brass can do it. How about adding mouse gestures to any application, so you can control it with a flick of your wrist? Brass does it again. Brass doesn't use slow scripting languages like HTML, Javascript or XML: they're not designed for desktop applications.
