═══ 5. Help for General Options ═══

The General Options dialog box lets the user specify the time delay, if any, 
before floating CMD-Line to the surface.  For example, if CMD-Line is hidden by 
another window and the specified time limit expires, CMD-Line will move itself 
to the front of the other application. 

To enable this feature, simply click the Enabled checkbox.  A small checkmark 
will then appear. 

The default time limit before CMD-Line will float to the surface is 30 seconds. 
To change the time limit, use the UP and DOWN arrow buttons next to the entry 
field.

menu.  All QuickPick entries are unaffected. 

NOTE If an OS/2 session is selected, the user must also specify the extension, 
such as .EXE, to the file being executed.
