- Introduction
- ------------
- Window Control allows the user to manipulate desktop
- windows as their leisure. You can manually hide, move,
- resize or rename any program window. One of the most
- powerful things about Window Control is that you can
- set it up to do these things automatically. Read the
- help files to find out how to do this.
-
- Once you start using Window Control, I am sure that
- you will find it far more powerful and useful than
- any other program of this type. That is why it was
- created. Plenty programs exist to hide windows, or
- to minimise windows, etc, but none have all the
- features built into the one easy to use program.
- Window Control also has many useful features that
- I've not seen in any other programs.
-
-

- Installation & Uninstalling
- ---------------------------
- There is no special procedure to follow. Just place
- the program into any directory of your choice.
-
- This program requires the Visual Basic 3 runtime files
- to work. These are probably already on your computer.
- If not, you'll need VBRUN300.DLL for the program to work.
-
- To uninstall Window Control, just remove WINDOW.EXE and
- WINDOWH.INI which will be in your WINDOWS directory.
