Raymond Gillibert

Raymond Gillibert is an independent developer who maintains AltSnap, a lightweight system utility that revives the classic Unix-style window-dragging experience on Windows. Triggered by simply holding the Alt key while left-clicking anywhere inside a window, the program lets users move or resize windows without hunting for title bars or borders, a workflow especially appreciated on ultra-compact laptops, multi-monitor rigs, and tiled terminal environments. Beyond basic dragging, AltSnap offers magnetized snapping to screen edges or other windows, customizable modifier combinations, multi-button mouse support, and precise keyboard nudging—tools that speed up everyday arranging of code editors, chat clients, and reference documents. Power users layer it with tiling window managers or assign complex macros to middle-button drags, while accessibility-oriented profiles remap the Alt key to reduce repetitive strain. Because the utility is delivered as a portable executable with a tiny memory footprint, it can ride along on USB sticks or be injected into corporate builds without triggering heavyweight deployment chains. Gillibert’s fork preserves the spirit of Stefan Sundin’s original AltDrag, yet stays actively patched for modern Windows 10/11 builds, ensuring the gesture still works after each OS update. AltSnap is available free of charge on get.nero.com, where downloads are supplied through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest release and supporting batch installation alongside other chosen applications.
