1.0 INSTALLATION:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-
1.1 First Time Installation
If it's the first time you install ScreenMenu then simply drag the
ScreenMenu program to your WBStartup or anywhere and double-click on it.
But remember if you don't drag it in WBStartup, it will not be launched at
every reboot. Don't panic if nothing visually happen because this
commodity don't have a configuration window.
1.2 Update Installation
If it's not the first time and it's simply an Upgrade then I recommend
to simply overwrite the file ScreenMenu_v1.2 onto the last one, not the icons
because this is where your preferences are. And after having made the
copy, rename it to v1.2.
1.3 Killing the commodity
If you want to remove it from memory, you can do it like this:
- re-doubleclick on it.
- run 'Exchange' and select it + press the Kill button.

2.0 WHAT DOES IT DO ?
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
This program will, at the press of an HOTKEY, popup a medium LIST of
screen names that are already opened when you press the hotkey. From this
list you can click or select with the arrow keys the screen you want to have
in front. In other words, it's the same thing that the gadget at the upper
right of any screen, but it let you jump more than one screen at a time.
There is also a new gadget in the window. It let you see the screen
open by their Title or their Public Name. This was requested by Andreas
Voegele. (Thanks! :-)) In the futur version it will let you see the EGS
screens too, if you have the egs system running.

3.0 HOW DO I CHANGE THE HOTKEY?
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
In the workbench or CLI add the TOOLTYPE or Parameter HOTKEY=???
example:
ScreenMenu "HOTKEY=lshift lalt f10"
ScreenMenu "HOTKEY=control a"
ScreenMenu "HOTKEY=DEL"
etc...
-=-=-=-=-=-
4.0 BUGS KNOWN:
-=-=-=-=-=-
None. for now... If you see 4 name screen in the NORMAL SCREEN list,
and less than that in the PUBLIC SCREEN list then it's simply because some
of the screen open are not PUBLIC screen (they are CUSTOM or EGS or other
non-system screen).
-=-=-=-=-
5.0 FUTURE !?
-=-=-=-=-
If someone can tell me how to receive a Right Mouse button from a
CxMessage with a Filter then I will add a DoubleClick Right Mouse filter to
let you do it without the keyboard!...
(Andreas Voegele have already given to me the code to do)
(it. Check this in the version 1.3 or 1.4 )
EGS Screen Support, EScreen and EGS_Screen. If other non-system screen
exists, let me know and I will be happy to add support for them.
ScreenMenu is now Font Sensitive. Thanks to Andreas Voegele, Richard
Schiffelers and Jocelyn Levac to report this bug to me.
