Well, that... works. Most interesting. Anyway, I noticed that Alt-Tab simply does not work at all even when the window is inactive. Hm.

The only other gog game that has this behaviour is The Guild Gold, but that's because the shortcut actually runs a script. I can't say that is the case for SMAC/X, though. It links

directly to the .exe. Even opening the .exe directly disables alt-tab COMPLETELY.
