SUMMARY
=======
With Microsoft Windows 3.1, if you press ALT+TAB to switch between Windows-based
applications, Windows displays a box that and identifies the last application
that you accessed.
If you hold the ALT key down, pressing TAB cycles through all of the applications
that are currently running. When you let go of the ALT key, the identified
application becomes the active application.
In a virtual machine, the ALT+TAB key sequence still steps through the running
applications, but rather than displaying a box with an application name and
icon, it displays a blank MS-DOS screen with the application title listed at the
top-center of the screen.
NOTE: If you press ALT+TAB and then press ESC before releasing the ALT key, you
remove the dialog box that displays the selected application.
