METZ Task Manager
In case you didn't already know, TaskMan can be accessed at
any time by simply pressing Ctrl Escape. You can also choose
the Switch To... menu item from any applications system menu, or
double click the mouse on the Windows background to access TaskMan
as well.
You may find it easier to use the help system with TaskMan by
choosing the Stay visible checkbox from File - Preferences -
Task Manager dialog.
METZKW.SYS
1. Using the METZ Task Manager's Screen Saver with Non-Windows
Applications.
If you use the METZ Task Manager's Screen Saver feature and
run DOS applications under Microsoft Windows, and are having
problems with the Screen Saver activating while you are working
in the DOS window, make sure that METZKW.SYS is installed in your
CONFIG.SYS file. This driver (METZKW.SYS) detects activity in
your DOS application, and supports DOS Hotkeys you have defined
in your METZ applications. Your CONFIG.SYS file should contain
a line reading:
device=c:\windows\system\metzkw.sys (or the appropriate path)
You can verify proper installation by checking the System
Status dialog in METZ Task Manager. A line stating "METZKW is present"
will appear in the list of General information if METZKW.SYS is
correctly installed. Don't forget to reboot if you have just
made the changes to your CONFIG.SYS file.
2. Technical Information about METZKW.SYS.
METZKW.SYS uses only 1232 bytes of memory.
METZKW.SYS can be loaded high.
METZKW.SYS has the following optional parameters:
/NOCAD - disables CTRL-ALT-DEL at the DOS level.
/NOMAT - disables mouse tracking, should there be a conflict
If you were to add both options to your CONFIG.SYS, they would
appear as follows:
device=c:\windows\system\metzkw.sys /NOCAD /NOMAT
