----------------------

-----------------
****************************************************************************
The previous version of "private folder" must be removed before installing
a new version:
- move the contents of your private folders to a backup folder.
- WARNING: UNLOCK ALL FOLDERS & use
"REPLCLS WPFolder PrivF R" (if necessary).
- delete ALL your private folders.
- use REMOVE.CMD to unregister the old class.
- Reboot the system
- install the new version and restore your environnemnt (see install)
INSTALLATION:
------------
Rename the file PRIVFfr.DLL (french) or PRIVFus.DLL (english) to PRIVF.DLL.
Use ADD.CMD to register the new Private folder class.
For the creation of a private folder :
- Use TEST.CMD (password is set in the batch file)
Keywords are PASSWORD, CLOSELOCK and COMMONPWD.
- or use the TEMPLATE (default password is 'password' in english
and 'motdepas' in french).
For removing the class, delete all private folders and use REMOVE.CMD.
ps: All .CMD files assume that the system drive is C:. Edit them to specify
another drive letter.
REPLCLS:
--------
You can use REPLCLS to make ALL existing folders "private folders", this
give the possibility to protect the "OS/2 system" folder, for example.
syntax: REPLCLS WPFolder PrivF O
(case sensitive)
to reverse use REPLCLS WPFolder PrivF R
(case sensitive !)
****************************************************************************
Version 1.2 (93-29-01)
--------
- Remove a BIGGG BUGGGG : if REPLCLS is used, the option LOCK ACCES and
the Setting page for access are removed for the folder DESKTOP.
- Added 2 new keywords in the init string :
. CLOSELOCK=YES -> folder is always locked
. COMMONPWD=YES -> use desktop password
- Set the focus on the opened view after asking the password.
Version 1.11 (93-25-01)
--------
- Corrected some problems
- Added an option to use, for a private folder, the same password as
for the "Lockup option" of the Desktop.
- Encrypted password
- Prevent any object to be dropped on a locked and closed folder
- In the popup menu of the "private folder" added only the right option :
'LOCK ACCES' or UNLOCK ACCESS'
Version 1.1 (93-14-01)
-----------
- Corrected some problems :
. The option "Always locked" is not switched off when you
Unlock the folder (thanks to Samuel)
. I try to correct my grammar (thanks to Samuel)
. The default icons of the folders are hidden by the "private folder"
icon with the REPLCLS command.
- strdlg.h and privf.rc files will be provided for translation and NLS
support. Send me the translated files please.
- The "Always locked" option is active after a reboot. If a "private
folder" needs to be open, the system asks for the password.
Version 1.0
-----------
PRIVF is a new type of folder, a private folder.
A private folder is a protected folder with a password.
You can change the password by using the settings notebook
and check the option for always locking the folder after a close.
The private folder can't be moved, copied, deleted, opened, ...
without giving the correct password.
