Right, exactly. Since the program is a hotkey program, not a key broadcasting program, it has to offer the user the option of either passing that particular key through or not passing it through. I chose to make the first option the default since I figured that is what most people will expect from a hotkey program. But like you say, the other option is easy enough to arrange. It's just an extra two lines in the definition:

<hotkey 3>
<sendwin NameOfForegroundWindow>
3

Great. In that case I'm going to post a new build 51 later today with an improved <SetBackFocusDelay> which is necessary to tune SendWinMF. The new version of the command will take two arguments so you can fine-tune both the delay before and the delay after the send. If that doesn't work for you, then I still have the new buffering stuff up my sleeve.
