  1. Short:    V1.3 Iconify+move Windows out of Screen!
  2. Author:   georg.steger@rolmail.net (Georg Steger)
  3. Uploader: georg.steger@rolmail.net (Georg Steger)
  4. Version:  1.3
  5. Type:     util/misc
  6. Requires: OS 2.0
  7.  
  8. I'm too busy with AROS (http://www.aros.org) right now so I decided to
  9. release PowerWindows as Freeware. Source Code is also available in
  10. util/misc/PowerWinNG_Src.lha.
  11.  
  12. This archive contains also a special version of PowerWindows called
  13. PowerWindowsNG. This version was formerly only available to registered
  14. users. This special version is faster, safer and you can move windows
  15. out of screen in any direction!!! But it requires a direct ROM patch
  16. so this version will only work if on your machine you can use BlizKick
  17. (a rom kick utility) or another ROM kick utility which can load a ROM
  18. kickstart file from HD. With BlizKick there is no need to have a patched
  19. ROM file on HD, because there is a special PowerWindows ROM patch module
  20. for BlizKick included in this archive.

  24. PowerWindows is a little utility, that allows you to move Windows out of
  25. Screen! You can't believe it? Well, just try it out and you will be
  26. amazed. Needs only some hundred Bytes per Screen!
  27.  
  28. You'll finally know where to move your windows. No need to resize and
  29. move your windows to get to the desired one, anymore.
  30.  
  31. Another Feature of PowerWindows is the possibility to iconify ANY window.
  32. Your Windows will get an Iconify-Gadget which can have different looks
  33. (MUI, SYSI, ...)!!!! Iconifying is 100 % compatible and should not cause
  34. any problems:
