- WindowTiler 1.1 - 1/17/92 by Doug Dyer
- Fun for the whole family!
-
- What is this thing?
-
- WindowTiler is a simple commodity for os2.0 users that allows you to map certain
- Windows3.0 type window management to a key combination. NOTE: if it does nothing
- make sure (using commodities exchange) that you disable any commodities that
- conflict for the same hotkeys.
-
- Instructions:
-
- Select the WindowTiler icon, and then "information" in the workbench menu. Then,
- in the list box add or edit the tools listed to conform to keyboard equivalents
- you want. For instance, to set CASCADE to alt-f10, just type (with no extra spaces, and CAPITALIZATION MATTERS) CASCADE=Alt F10.
-
- Keyboard Equivalents:
-
- Alt (any alt key)
- RAlt
- LAlt
- Shift (any shift key)
- RShift
- LShift
- RCommand
- LCommand
- Control
- Numericpad
- Rbutton (mouse buttons)
- Lbutton
- A,B,...
-
- Tool types available:
-
- CASCADE Cascades all resizeable windows.
- CASCADELEFT Cascades windows with right sides inset.
- This one also leaves a bit of space on the right side of the
- screen (I use that to get to my dock window). This one
- is also easier to use since it gives you access to the front/
- back gadgets.
- TILE Tiles windows
- VTILE Lists windows vertically
- HTILE Lists windows horizontally
- MINIMIZE shrinks windows
- MAXIMIZE enlarges windows
-
-
-
- If you place this tool in your wbstartup drawer, don't forget the DONOTWAIT.
- I find the most useful setup IHELP's cycle and zoom on f1,f2 and tile,
- cascadeleft on f3,f4.
