- Short
- -----------------------------------
-
- Many programs on other operating systems often offer so called
- "Tip of the day" stickers. It's mostly small window opened on
- program startup, showing valuable (more or less) information about
- the program, some useful information, keyboard shortcuts or just
- neat tips or quick how-to solutions...
-
- I think, that from the user's point of view it's good idea to have
- such feature, especially Tips can be turned off if you felt bored.
- As you probably guessed, this class is supposed to handle such
- tips for your MUI based application almost in fully automatic manner
- (you just need to add 3 lines of code to have fully functional Tip
- Of The Day implemented! See the enclosed demonstration for more
- details.
-
- You like the class? Feel free to use it in your programs.
