Like Putty's authors, we have avoided creating a multi-session Anzio. If 
you're working over a network connection, it's just too easy to run 
multiple sessions of Anzio (to the same or different servers). You can set 
Track Window Position on, then drag and size each session to where you 
want it.

One feature we DID add (at Alan Mazuti's request, IIRC) was to make it 
easy to switch between sessions. Just use Ctrl-tab to cycle through open 
sessions (or shift-ctrl-tab to go backwords). Because lots of folks 
don't read all our good information, and so weren't discovering this 
feature, in version 16 I added a toolbar button that says "Next session", 
that does the same thing. Also, there's a command SWITCHTO that does this.
