About Virtual Magnifying Glass

	Virtual Magnifying Glass is designed for visually-impaired and others who need to magnify a part of the screen. Unlike most similar programs it does not open a separate window for the magnification but instead puts a movable magnifying glass on screen.

	This software is the multiplatform version of Virtual Magnigying Glass. Any feedback you can give us about this software will be greatly appreciated and can greatly enhance the quality of the software. You can give us feedback on our source-forge page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/magnifier
