```auto
windows = system.gui.getOpenedWindows()

for window in windows:
	print window.getTitle(), window.getPath(), window.getName(), window.hashCode()

```

`window.hashCode()` will give you a unique id for each otherwise identical window.  
`window.isStartMaximized()` should give you a good idea of whether it’s a popup window or not.
