Rest Your Eyes (RYE) Version 2 (Oct. 12, 1999):
DESCRIPTION:
Description:
Rest Your Eyes (RYE) will help to protect you from overwork, eye strain, and CRSI on the computer.
Simply set your desired work periods and rest intervals, then choose a screen saver and, optionally, a background
sound file. Minimize the program or place it in the system tray.
At the preset times, your computer will go into screen saver mode and you can take a break. The screen saver
presentation can be random, but your default screen saver settings will be returned when you close the program.
You can override operation during valuable online time and schedule applications such as backup utilities to run during your rest period.
Now with version 2, you can even synchronize your PC clock with an Internet time server, and it works for Windows
NT. Besides RYE uses a library from Windows Media player, so it supports all of its file types.
ZDNet said: "It's guaranteed to give you a lift when you need it" and gave it 5 stars.
Special feature: Remember when Explorer crashes and all the tray icons disappear and you have to restart
the computer for them to show again? RYE's tray icon ALWAYS stays visible even when Explorer crashes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPERATION NOTES
RYE always runs minimized; either normally or as a system tray icon.
Although it sets your current Windows screen saver to "none", RYE will restore your previous settings when you close it.
The "Disk ID" number shown on RYE's caption is needed when you register. It's the serial number of the disk where
Windows is installed.
To uninstall RYE, click on the Explorer's icon called "Uninstall RYE" or call Control Panel's "Add/Remove" dialog box,
select RYE, then click on Add/Remove.
