USING DRIVES
DRIVES has two ICONS available for you to choose from the

DRIVES. You can choose the ICON that displays the picture that
best describes what you want to use DRIVES for.
When DRIVES is started the box will appear at the top left corner of
the display and will display all the drives and space for each drive.
DRIVES has two main menu options: "Options" and "Help".
Help has three choices for "Exit", "About" and "Help". "Exit" will
terminate and "About" will display the version number of DRIVES.
"Help" will display a message that will tell you to read this file
On-line help will be implemented with the next version of DRIVES.
The Options menu has three choices for "Update Rate..." , "Icon
is..." and "Drive info....".
"Update Rate" will allow you to change the rate at which DRIVES
updates its information. The times range from .10 seconds to 60
seconds. The default rate is .10 seconds.
"Icon is" will allow you to choose what DRIVES will display when it
is an ICON. The choices are each drive that you have on your system.
The default choice is Drive C:.
When you minimize DRIVES to an ICON it will display the drive you
requested in the ICON. This number will continue to be updated at
the Update Rate that you selected. When the DRIVES ICON is enlarged
all the information will be displayed once again.
COMMAND LINE
You can also pass command line options to DRIVES. This command line
option tells DRIVES which disk you want to see in the icon.

SEND US ONE DOLLAR ($1) AND WE WILL WRITE MORE
We are releasing DRIVES and TASKS into Shareware at the same time.
We are asking for One Dollar for each of these programs. We are
considering this a type of Vote. If we receive $200 nationwide we
will consider it a YES vote to Windows utilities. If we don't
receive $200 nationwide for these two programs we will consider it
a NO vote to Windows Utilities If we can't get 200 people to send
in $1 across the whole country then we will consider the interest
to be too low to justify writing any more programs.
If the vote is YES we will attempt to release 10 utilities for
Windows 3.0 over the next year. We will ask for One Dollar apiece
for these utilities or $10 for all of them. These will include
Program Launch, Memory Management and various other utilities.
Currently available Windows Utilities for 3.0 are selling for over
$100.
If you would like to vote YES please send One Dollar to :
