In fact, there is so much new functionality that it could be considered a new product. Please see the above list of features and be sure to look in our on-line help for full details on how to use the new capabilities! INSTALLATION NOTES & SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Plug-In works with all flavors of Windows 3.1, including Windows 3.1, Windows 3.11, Windows for Workgroups 3.1 and Windows for Workgroups 3.11. Plug-In is designed to be an integral part of Windows and is thus always "running" ... however, it uses your memory and processor sparingly! The Plug-In package includes a number of sound files. If you do not intend to use these, you may delete *.WAV from your Plug-In home directory to free-up some disk space. If you also have the talking clock files, but do not need them, you may delete *.SAY and *.DAT from your Plug-In home directory. Plug-In takes between 0.5 and 1.5 MB of disk space (depending on whether or not you are using the sound files). It uses between 2% to 3% of system resources when it is running. Once you have unarchived (or copied) all of Plug-In's files to a directory on your hard disk (e.g., C:\PLUGIN), run PLUGIN.EXE from Windows. Plug-In has a built-in install program which will setup its data files in a subdirectory of your Plug-In home directory. If you are updating an existing version of Plug-In, see the next section. INSTALLING OVER A PREVIOUS VERSION OF PLUG-IN NOTE!: If you are installing from Plug-In's master diskette (which you receive when you purchase Plug-In), simply run INSTALL.EXE from the diskette (Hint: Use Plug-In's Install Application feature!). If you are installing by using the "freely distributable" software, please read these notes: 1) If you already have a version of Plug-In running on your system, you must first shut it down before running the new version of Plug-In V2! For Plug-In 1.x, select "Options | Configure Plug-In | Remove" from Program Manager's menus For Plug-In 2.x, select "Shutdown Plug-In" from the Plug-In Control Center dialog (double-click on the Power Button, or select Options | Configure Plug-In from the QuickRun menu. 2) UnArchive Plug-In V2. You can overwrite the existing Plug-In files if you wish. 3) Run PLUGIN.EXE from the Plug-In V2 home directory, and you are on your way. SPECIAL NOTES FOR USERS OF PLUG-IN V2.00 - V2.20 This release contains a large number of changes from previous versions of Plug-In V2 (Versions 2.00 thru 2.20). Following are some notes to help you with the update process: - Plug-In V2.5 uses a different technique for updating the title bar displays. While this new method is much "safer" than the previous one, you may notice an occasional flicker or even a short period where the title bar displays are removed while using certain applications. This is due to a delay between when an application repaints its title bar and when it gives up control of the processor so that Plug-In can do its work. In normal operation, you won't even notice any difference. - Plug-In now stores its data files in a separate directory. When you first run the new version of Plug-In, it will create this directory and move your data files from the Plug-In directory to the data directory. This new directory is called PLUGDATA and will be located in your Plug-In home directory. However, if you are running Plug-In from a network drive, it will create the PLUGDATA directory in your Windows directory. This whole process is completed automatically and does not require any action on your part. One of the benefits of this new data directory is that you can easily backup your Plug-In data files and it also results in less clutter in your Windows directory (which is already crowded with lots of files). - The sound playback mode will be changed to "Asynchronous" when you update to V2.5. This was done to avoid a problem with some sound drivers where sound apps would report "sound device in use" when they started. However, you may find that you enjoy the "feel" of synchronous playback mode better. Please feel free to change it back to synchronous by using the Sound Options dialog. - We now have an "Exclude" dialog, which will allow you to easily exclude the title bar dislays and/or event sounds from any application you desire. - For more details on changes in Plug-In V2.5, please see the "Change History" at the end of this file. MOVING YOUR PLUG-IN DATA DIRECTORY There are a couple of simple considerations if you wish to relocate your Plug-In data directory. 1) You can copy all the files to another directory. We recommend that whatever directory you choose is a separate directory used only for storing Plug-In's data files. By default, this directory is called PLUGDATA and is located in your Plug-In home directory. PLEASE do not move your Plug-In data directory while Plug-In is running! You could lose valuable data! 2) If you simply run Plug-In from a different location (for example, if you are updating to a new version and installed in a different directory), Plug-In will offer to move the data files for you. 3) If you move the data files manually, there are a couple of ways you can inform Plug-In about the move: a) Edit WIN.INI, and look for a section called [Plannet]. Replace the "Plug-In=" entry with the new path, save the file, and restart Windows b) If you move the PLUGDATA directory from your old Plug-In home directory to your new home directory, Plug-In will automatically detect the change if the old directory is renamed or removed. NOTES FOR INTERNATIONAL USERS Plug-In has fairly complete support for many international countries. We support international date/time formats and even the Talking Clock feature has the ability to use 24 hour format. New in this version of Plug-In is an "International Settings" dialog (accessed from the General Options dialog in Plug-In's Control Center). This dialog allows you to modify a number of important text strings used by Plug-In. This gives it a much more "integrated" feel when you use Plug-In with an international version of Windows. CONFLICTS WITH OTHER UTILITIES There are several programs on the market (both commercial and shareware) that offer some overlapping functionality with Plug-In. While most of these programs do not cause serious conflicts, you might see some unexpected behavior. For example, if you are using another utility that displays information on active title bars, you will see both applications fighting to paint on the title bar. Another example is utilities that assign sounds to system events. Please note that almost everything in Plug-In is configurable. If there is a feature you don't desire, check the Control Center. Chances are you can disable it or modify the settings to your liking. We are currently aware of a few utilities that have problems when Plug-In is running: 1) Icon Hear-It and Icon Do-It. If these programs are loaded prior to Plug-In AND you have icon movies assigned to group icons, the group icons with the movies will appear as black squares. The solution is to have Plug-In load prior to these utilities. Please note that due to the way Plug-In initializes, this workaround is only possible in the registered version of Plug-In. 2) Wired for Sound Pro. This program can cause a GP Fault in Program Manager if Plug-In is running. While this problem is not due to a bug in Plug-In, we have devised a workaround for those who wish to continue using Wired for Sound. You need to add "WFS=1" to the [Settings] section of PLUGIN.INI (in your Plug-In data directory). Before using this fix, please take a look in the "INI-Switches" subsection of "Tips & Techniques" in the Plug-In help file. 3) AnyView Pro (Binar Graphics). This utility has a problem with any application that modifies menus in another app. This is due to its "OptiMemm" feature, which by default is set to "high". To use AnyView and Plug-In at the same time, all you need to do is set the OptiMemm feature in AnyView to "LOW". 4) Lotus Notes. Depending on your configuration, the QuickRun menu accessed from the Power Button in the Lotus Notes title bar will not do anything if you select a menu item. We are looking into this and hope to have a fix shortly. EXCLUDING APPS FROM PLUG-IN'S TITLE BAR DISPLAYS AND EVENT SOUNDS New in this version of Plug-In is an "Exclude" dialog, which allows you to easily exclude Plug-In's title bar displays and/or event sounds from any applications you desire. This gives you total control over how Plug-In interacts with your programs. The list of default excludes includes: ChessMaster 4000 (title bar and sounds) Myst (title bar and sounds) SideKick for Windows (title bar) WordPerfect for Windows (title bar) Ami Pro for Windows (title bar) InterNetworks (title bar) You can, of course, change any of these defaults to suit your wishes. For example, it is possible in SideKick to disable its use of the title bar, in which case you may want to re-enable Plug-In's title bar displays for SideKick. For full details on this feature, please refer to the on-line help. UPDATE ISSUES FOR OWNERS OF PLUG-IN 1.X The registration scheme has changed in Plug-In V2. As a current owner of Plug-In 1.x, you are entitled to a complimentary Plug-In V2 registration. If you wish to order the update diskette, your new registration info will come with the package. Please see the next section, "Ordering the Update Diskette..." for full details. If you want your new registration info, but do not desire the update diskette, please send us mail, fax, or e-mail (no phone calls, please). Include your name, address, and phone; and specify that you are a registered user and want the new registration info. We will mail your registration info to you. ORDERING THE UPDATE DISKETTE IF YOU CURRENTLY OWN PLUG-IN 1.x If you currently own Plug-In 1.x, you can obtain the released version on diskette. This diskette contains lots of new icons, cursors and sound files (including the Plug-In Talking Clock). To order the update, contact Plannet Crafters by phone or send us an order via mail, fax, or e-mail. The cost for the new master diskette is: $8 (including shipping / handling in the U.S. and Canada) $10 (including shipping / handling for International orders) Please be SURE to include your full name and address so that we can verify your ownership status in our database.

Our logo colors are shades of blue with an olive green saturn ring. The image appears large on the back and small over the left breast. They are available in Large and Extra-Large and cost only $10. Shipping and Handling is $3 (no S&H if ordered with another Plannet Crafters product), and we use Priority Mail. Contact us to place your order today! WHERE CAN I OBTAIN THE TALKING CLOCK FILES? Due to size constraints, the Talking Clock files are packages in a separate archive. The filename is PITALK2?.ZIP, where "?" is the current revision level of Plug-In. So, if you obtained PLUGIN25.ZIP, look for PITALK25.ZIP. The size of this file is approximately 350K. If you can't find this archive locally, you can always obtain it from the Plannet Crafters BBS or via the Plannet Crafters FTP Site (see below). Of course, when you purchase the product, we ship you a master diskette which contains the Talking Clock files, plus lots of other goodies. Once you obtain the Talking Clock files, place the contents in the same directory as Plug-In. Note that the Talking Clock feature requires a sound card or a special PC speaker driver. This special speaker driver is available from our BBS and FTP site. The filename is PISPEAK.ZIP Note: If you have already obtained the talking clock files from a previous version of Plug-In V2, please be aware that we have updated the female voice in Version 2.5. Note2: We now have a few additional variations on the Talking Clock voices (echo effects, etc.). You can download these files from our BBS or FTP download site. We plan to have a number of other voices available in the not-too-distant future. THE PLANNET CRAFTERS SUPPORT BBS This BBS is a good way to obtain detailed support. We provide individual answers to your questions. We also have plans to provide additional files on the BBS that may not be available elsewhere (such as additional sound files). Also, our BBS is the best place to guarantee that you are obtaining the most current version of our software products. The phone number is 404-740-8583. It has multiple lines, supports high-speed (28.8 KBPS; V.34 / V.FAST) modems, and is operational 24 hours/day. THE PLANNET CRAFTERS FTP DOWNLOAD SITE We now have a full-time FTP (File Transfer Protocol) site so that you can easily download the latest version of Plug-In (and other Plannet Crafters products) if you have internet access. - The FTP site is ftp.ping.com - Logon with a user id of anonymous and enter your e-mail address as the password - The Plannet Crafters file directory is /pub/users/plannet Please note that this site is not guaranteed to be available in the future. We hope to setup shop on the internet (our own domain, web pages, etc.) in the not-too-distant future. However, we will try to keep the above FTP site available for as long as possible. If you have any questions regarding use of this FTP site please ask us. However, we are not equipped to provide a tutorial on the basic use of FTP software. NOW THAT WE'VE GOT YOUR ATTENTION! We want to thank all of you for making Plug-In a major success for us! It is your enthusiasm that has driven us to create this major upgrade to the original Plug-In. We hope you enjoy it! As you can see in the next section, we aren't resting on our laurels... PLUG-IN AND WINDOWS 95 (AKA CHICAGO and WINDOWS 4.0) You might be aware that the next version of Windows (Windows 95) is currently under development by Microsoft. This is a major new release of the Windows environment, which contains many changes. Plug-In will remain a valuable addition to your system when you upgrade to Win 95. However, the current version of Plug-In is only designed to operate under Windows 3.x. We are working on a major update to Plug-In that will take advantage of the new features offered by Win 95, and hope to have it available when Win 95 is released. Please contact Plannet Crafters for further details. Also, please note that we are interested in creating a version of Plug-In to work in conjunction with Windows NT, but that will probably come after we release the Win 95 version... HOW TO USE THE RESTRICTIONS SETTINGS Plug-In now supports a set of restriction settings as an aid to system administrators. These settings can be used to prohibit the modification of most of Plug-In's features. To use this feature, simply create a file called RESTRICT.INI in the Plug-In home directory. It is recommended that this file be made read-only so that end-users cannot modify it. The format of the RESTRICT.INI file is: [Restrictions] GE=1 PM=1 CC=1 RA=1 QR=1 TB=1 AS=1 SO=1 Each of these settings can be set to "1" (restricted) or "0" (not restricted). Note that the default for each entry is "not restricted". "GE" disables the General Options dialog "PM" disables the Program Manager Options dialog "CC" disables the Custom Cursors dialog "RA" disables the Resource Alerts dialog "QR" disables the QuickRun Config dialog "TB" disables the Title Bar Config dialog "AS" disables the Alarms & Scheduler dialog "SO" disables the Sounds Config dialog Please note that the purpose of these settings is to disallow end-user modifications of configuration data. However, the individual features are not disabled (unless, of course, you disable specific features prior to enabling the restrictions settings). If you have further questions about the use of the restrictions settings and/or questions about using Plug-In in a networked environment, please feel free to call us! HOW TO DE-INSTALL PLUG-IN If you wish to de-install Plug-In from a system, do the following: 1) If you have used Plug-In's nested groups (with Program Manager), you should first un-nest all nested groups by dragging them to Program Manager's desktop. 2) Disable "Run Plug-In when Windows starts" in the "General Config" dialog and press the OK button. (If you fail to do this, you must manually remove the Plug-In entry from either the StartUp group or the "Load=" line in the WIN.INI file.) 3) Shutdown Plug-In by selecting "Shutdown Plug-In" in the Plug-In Control Center dialog. 4) In the Windows directory, delete the following files: GROUP.EXE and PLUGIN.* (may not exist) 5) Delete all files in Plug-In's home directory (assuming this directory contains ONLY Plug-In files!). Also, be sure to delete any files in the Plug-In data directory (default is PLUGDATA under your Plug-In home directory). CHANGE HISTORY Version 1.00 (September 28, 1992) - The original Plug-In for Program Manager! Version 1.31 (April 16, 1993) - The last release of Plug-In for Program Manager, Version 1 Version 2.00 (May 4, 1994) - Very major update from Version 1.x. So many new features that it is really a new product! Version 2.10 (May 17, 1994) - Fixed a bug in Application-Specific Events (sound support) that would cause application errors. - Save Settings was fixed to avoid a problem whereby an open nested group would become permanently open. - Disallow operations on a group with the title of "Groups". It is not permitted to have a group named "Groups" because of the way Plug-In interfaces with Program Manager. - Fixed some problems with udpating the Title Bar displays - Several smaller fixes - Cleaned up the Help file a bit. Version 2.11 (May 31, 1994) - Fixed an interaction with some video drivers that could cause strange behavior when running full-screen DOS apps (e.g., no text displayed, but typing seems to work). - Running Plug-In on HP OmniBooks would display a message stating that "Program Manager could not be found". - Several smaller fixes. - Several changes / updates to the README.TXT and online help files. Version 2.20 (September 25, 1994) - We moved! So, we updated our address and phone information. - Invalid date / time settings caused problems. We now display a message and abort the load process. - Erroneous message was displayed if PLUGIN.INI was not present during Plug-In's Mini-Install process. - Chimes would not chime if the "Chime Between" times had an "end time" of 12AM (or 00h) and a "from time" not set to 12AM (or 00h). - We now accept JCB credit cards. - Added a switch to reset the sound driver immediately after Plug-In starts. If you encounter a problem where sounds won't work unless you hit the "Test" key in a Plug-In dialog, please edit your PLUGIN.INI file (in your Windows directory) and add "ResetSound=1" to the [Settings] section. Please let us know if this does or does not solve the problem on your system! - CD-ROM changes were not always detected by Install Application. - Eliminated a situation that could cause a nested group to become permanently "open". - Added a message to clarify the location / parent group when creating a nested group. - Right Click menu on desktop would not stay open if your mouse was jittery or moved slightly. - Several changes / updates to the on-line help, README.TXT and other text files. Version 2.50 (January 24, 1995) - There are several NEW features and LOTS of smaller changes! Please note that the list below lists mosts of the changes, but we probably missed a few of the smaller ones... New & Improved -------------- - Overall robustness has been greatly improved! Although it was rather rare, there were applications which conflicted with Plug-In. With the exception of a couple of specialized utilities, we have eliminated all known conflicts. - Install App now allows for browsing and redoing the drive search when it fails to find any install programs. - Exclude dialogs allow you to easily exclude the title bar displays and/or Plug-In sounds from any specified applications. - Added an option to disable the QuickRun menu item in Program Manager. Since the QuickRun menu is always easily accessible, this menu item is somewhat redundant. - International Settings Dialog gives control over some of the more visible text strings used by Plug-In. In addition to being of value to our international users, this dialog can be used to further customize Plug-In to your liking. For example, you might wish to change the default 3-character month strings to their full names. - Restrictions section added. System Administrators can prevent users from modifying the QuickRun menu, Resource Alerts, and Sounds Settings, Etc. For details on using this feature, see the section on Restrictions above. - Plug-In now has the ability to function as the Windows Shell (i.e., replace Program Manager or other third-party shells). This feature will appeal to you if you if you like to have the ultimate in uncluttered desktops. It also is great if you like to run large desktops (i.e., memory and resource hogs), because you can easily unload the desktop if you temporarilly need the extra memory and/or resources. - In conjunction with allowing Plug-In to function as a shell, we now allow Program Manager to be run at any time and still have all the added Plug-In functionality. So, if you use Plug-In as your shell, you can run Program Manager as you need it, and shut it down when you don't. - Plug-In now supports a separate data directory, instead of forcing its data files to be located in the Windows directory. In addition to making it easier to manage these files, this also allows you to easily backup your valuable Plug-In data. Note: The default location for this directory is PLUGDATA in your Plug-In home directory (it will be in the Windows directory if you are running Plug-In from a network drive). - New Talking Clock voice for the default (female) voice. We've also released an additional collection of talking clock voices for your enjoyment. Bug Fixes --------- - Talking Clock, Chimes, and long sounds wouldn't work in certain countries (e.g., France, Netherlands). - Talking Clock would display an error message if the sound device was in use. This was annoying under certain conditions (such as when a screen saver with sound support is active). - Pentium processors would be displayed as 80486's in the System Info dialog - Chimes at midnight would chime only once instead of 12 times. - System Resource Alerts could occur too often if the percent of free system resources hovered right around the user-defined threshold. - Cursors other than standard size (32 x 32 pixels) could cause Plug-In to crash. - Plug-In exit sound didn't always wait to complete before Windows terminated. - Plug-In start sound wouldn't play if another sound was currently in progress. - Items entered into the Run history list were lowercased, which caused problems with some commands which are case sensitive. - 'Control + Alt + Spacebar' had been used to activate the QuickRun menu in an app (similar to using 'Alt + Spacebar' to activate the system menu in an app). However, this caused problems with macro recorders, so it is no longer a feature. - Under certain circumstances, running a program using dynamic Program Manager groups in the QuickRun menu would result in the working directory being improperly set. - If there is an error playing an hourly chime, we will disable the chime. This is to help prevent repeating error messages. - Plug-In's title bar displays were sometimes incorrect on apps that allow the title bar to be dynamically disabled. - Plug-In wouldn't show up on certain app's main windows (such as Eudora and Netscape) - The title bar displays on dialog boxes with unusual border styles would be off by a pixel or two. - The vertical positioning of the title bar display could be off if only the right-hand side of the display was active. - If you setup a minimized QuickDOS app from the QuickRun menu, it failed to execute in the background. - The 'Prompt for Parameters' dialog (QuickRun) failed to supress the display of ampersands in its title. - If Plug-In is run a second time, it brings up the Control Center, which is handy. However, some users would end up with Plug-In specified in the LOAD= line in WIN.INi *and* their StartUp group, which would cause the Control Center to come up as soon as they started Windows. We now do not bring up the Control Center if Plug-In is run a second time within the first 60 seconds after Windows is started. - The Program Manager iconic display of memory / system resources didn't look right if the user had less than 10MB of memory (including swap file memory). - Right-Click menus of group items in Program Manager were not sorted properly. - The Capture dialog now sets the window to default if the chosen application is minimized. - Certain date formats didn't display properly - Added a workaround for a problem that occurred if Plug-In and Wired for Sound were running at the same time. The workaround is described in the "Conflicts with Other Utilities" section earlier in this README file. - Alarms and Chimes have an option to operate between certain hours, but it didn't work if the hours crossed through midnight. In other words, 'between 6PM and 9AM' now works. - The 'Play Sound' action would be enabled for a new alarm even if the <default> alarm sound was set to <none>. - Some dialogs would allow OK to be pressed even if all the needed info was not entered. - We had some problems on some Japanese machines due to the way drive letters are assigned (drive A can be the hard disk and drive C can be the floppy) - Sometimes the hourly repeat interval for an alarm would not be properly set. - We no longer reset the ProgMan Hotkey if one is not defined via Plug-In. - If a user enters a commandline such as 'D:MYAPP.EXE' (with no directory specifiers), we now look for 'MYAPP.EXE' in the root directory of drive D - In very rare situations we ran into a problem on Windows startup where a GPF would occur inside TOOLHELP.DLL. This has been fixed. - Items in the sound list could not be in deeply nested directories.
