- What is FM Applic?
- ------------------
-
- At long last, the utility that Microsoft forgot to put into the
- File Manager, is here!
-
- Introducing FM Applic 1.1 !
-
- FM Applic is a File Manager extension that provides you with an
- Applications menu. But wait, FM Applic is more than just an
- application launcher. It is a powerful utility that is fully
- integrated with the File Manager. Please read on.
-
- Click on File, Click on Application, and Presto!
- ------------------------------------------------
-
- Files that you select in the File Manager's current directory
- window or search results window become the input to the
- application you choose. For example, a very useful
- application that you will want to add is your favorite text
- editor. Simply click on the file that you want to edit,
- select your text editor from the Applications menu and,
- presto! You are editing the selected file with your favorite
- editor.
-
- Toolbar Support
- -------------------
-
- If you are a Windows for Workgroups 3.1 user, you will be
- happy to know that FM Applic takes full advantage of the File
- Manager's toolbar. You can associate an application with one
- of the many toolbar buttons provided with FM Applic. Or, you
- can convert an icon (from an icon file) into a toolbar button
- for your application.
-
- Right Mouse Button Support
- --------------------------
-
- FM Applic allows you to assign your favorite application to
- the right mouse button. Every time you click the right mouse
- button, you are running your favorite application with the
- files that are selected in the File Manager.
-
- Auto-load Drag-Drop Applications when File Manager starts
- ---------------------------------------------------------
-
- Another nice feature that FM Applic provides is the ability to
- start an application when the File Manager starts.
- "Auto-loading" is very useful for applications that support
- the Drag-Drop feature of the File Manager, such as a
- "trash-can" or a "file browse" program.
-
- Also, FM Applic can keep your application's icon on top of the
- File Manager window. That way, you can Drag-Drop files to
- your auto-load applications even if the File Manager window is
- expanded to full size.
-
- Easy to Use and Configure
- -------------------------
-
- FM Applic is so intuitive and easy to use, anyone can
- customize it with their favorite applications. No
- programming, no editing files, no exiting and re-starting
- File Manager. The user interface and on-line help guide you
- through just a few easy steps.
-
- Benefits
- --------
-
- Now File Manager is complete! Here are just a few ways you
- will benefit by using FM Applic:
-
- o Say "Good-bye" to the File Manager's Run command.
- o No more fumbling with "associations".
- o No more flip-flopping between File Manager and Program
- Manager.
