- Refresh is a small app which sends a repaint event to every window currently
- visible. It's main use is for programmers, who often end up with corrupted
- screens while debugging programs (especially if you're forced to use
- Watcom's crappy debugger (grrr)), however some buggy video drivers and
- programs can also leave rubbish on the screen.
-
- Refresh may be run in two modes. When run ordinarily, Refresh displays
- an icon at the bottom of the screen. Double clicking on this icon will
- result in a refresh event. Alternatively, if it's run with the command
- line;
-
- REFRESH /NOWINDOW
-
- Refresh will not display an icon, and causes the screen to be repainted
- immediately. This is useful in conjunction with a program like Dropper
- or WinDock.
-
- Refresh is free, and may be distributed to anyone as long as this file is
- distributed with it. Source code is available from the author on request.
