The developer is AWOL and the download link doesn't work. However, you can still find the program here:

The ability to switch to the user login screen is very welcome. Used to implement this behavior with Winswitch but that has been abandoned long time ago. And no luck when trying to set this up from the Shortcuts definitions in Apple's "Keyboards" pref pane

Fantastic. Now I can use all my corners for other things. Thanks!

This is great! Thanks for creating it.
One thing that might help, especially for windows users coming to the Mac. On Windows, you trigger the equivalent dialog with the forward delete key (next to "end"), not the backwards delete key. It would be nice if Salute took either combination.
I agree with the other suggestions for having key combos for the other buttons.

Cool.
Can you make this put Mac to Sleep?
How about entering a letter to invoke specific command?
cANCEL, tERMINAL, mONITOR, sCREENSAVER, SLEEp, SHUTdOWN, rESTART
Maybe a different app?
Anyway, Thanx
