Resizing/moving windows with keypress and mouse in Mac OS X
A few years ago I remember a friend using an application in Ubuntu that made window management extremely easy. If you wanted to move the active window, you would press a key and drag the window by clicking anywhere on the window. If you wanted to resize the active window (proportionally), you would press a key and turn the wheel. I think this is very intuitive way to resize and move a window.
Are there any free applications for Mac OS X that can utilize similar mechanics?
Afloat does moving and resizing as explained, and does more than that. I really loved this application.
