･ Release Notes:
Version 1.0.2 - Nov. 14, 1995
･ Optimized to use up even less disk and memory space than ever before.
･ Extensions Strip savvy. This means that when your module host is ES:
- No "jGNE filter" is installed, because ES' API eliminates the need for such devices. (A "jGNE filter" is a piece of code installed into your System Heap that intercepts all events, which consequently slows event processing a little.)
- Clicking on me with modifier key(s) down, while the CPU is busy, will still work if you later release the key(s).
- No idle time is used. (All modules open by other module hosts, that strictly follow the Control Strip API, eat idle time.)
Version 1.0.1 - June 25, 1995
･ Smarter memory management. The module's jGNE filter and different icons are only loaded if you click on Key Holder.
Version 1.0 - Oct. 1994
･ Initial release.
･ About this module:
Description:
Key Holder is a control strip module that acts like another finger by holding down the shift key, or any other modifier keys, during all mouse clicks. Very useful for selecting many items in a long list.
Feature summary:
･ Click on the module to "hold" down the shift key, and click again to "release" it.
･ Clicking on the module with other other modifier keys down will hold them as well.
･ If Key Holder is holding key(s), and you press those same key(s) on the keyboard, Key Holder will act as if those keys weren't pressed.
･ Distribution:
Key Holder may be distributed freely, but it must remain in its unmodified entirety. It can be put on disks and CD-ROMs that charge a reasonable fee for the cost of distributing it. I would appreciate a copy each of any such disks or CD-ROMs so that I know what it is being distributed on, but it is not a necessity. Thank you.
I also ask that you contact me about the latest version so that only that version is distributed. The latest version is always available at this internet World Wide Web location:

･ Contacting the author:
The author, Ammon Skidmore, can be reached by sending e-mail to <skidperfect@kagi.com>, which currently gets forwarded to my regular address of <ammon@cs.byu.edu> here at Brigham Young University.
Note: rarely, the CS alias file here becomes temporarily corrupted, in which case mail will never get to me, yet will not bounce! So, if I do not respond to an email message within 3 business days, please send it again, and also forward it to the actual account address: <ammon@bert.cs.byu.edu>
