NAME

FullBench - Removes the menu line on the Workbench  

SYNOPSIS

FullBench  

DESCRIPTION

When using a Workbench backdrop picture, the WBPicture prefs picture looks kinda weird when the title bar is showing at the top. Also, when using a big screen font the title bar wastes a lot of Workbench space.

This program will find the Workbench Window and resize it so that it fills the entire screen. It removes the Workbench title bar by setting the Workbench Screen ShowTitles=FALSE. It then creates a small window containing a screen depth gadget.

Place Fullbench in your WBStartup drawer.

Fullbench only makes sense to use when you have a backdrop Workbench and requires at least Kickstart V36 and screennotify.library V1.0. It has been tested with WB3.5. There should be no problems that I can see with it in the future

The code is provided to do with as you wish and I welcome any comments. This software is FREEWARE.
