- ============ Free when you register MnFind!! ==============
-
- You will receive the full registered version of MNFind.
-
- The registered version does not display the shareware nag
- screen at startup. Much faster!
-
- ** You will also receive the full version of 'Once a Day' **
-
- Tired of waiting for Windows to finish loading all those programs
- in your startup folder while your hard drive grinds itself to dust?
- I got tired of waiting and wrote this little program. Like its name
- implies, it runs any program you want, but only runs it once per day.
- Why would you run a program only once per day? It depends on the
- program and how you use it. I found that I only needed to run my
- PIM ( to check for appointments first thing each day ) and my
- eMail program only once. You might also want to run a virus check
- once per day or a backup. It couldn't be any faster or easier.
-
- ** You will also receive the full version of SlideShow **
-
- There are many other slideshow programs. I wrote this one
- because I wanted my Windows desktop wallpaper to be the slideshow.
- Thats right, you can run this program, point it at any directory
- containing BMP pictures, and watch your desktop come alive! Don't
- stare at the same boring desktop anymore. Scan pictures of your
- kids, your pets, etc. You can set how long each picture is
- displayed, from one second to one hour. The program will also
- display pictures in a small thumnail or in a separate window if
- you don't want them to go to the desktop.
-
- You will also receive the full version of WinPrank.
-
- ** Want to have some fun with your co-workers? **
-
- Are you on a LAN? If so, then this program is for you!
- Secretly run this program on your friends machine.
- He won't be able to see it running, there
- is no icon or window while it is running. Then go to your machine
- and run the control program. Now you're in control. Want to run a
- program, any program on his harddrive, any time you want? I put it
- on a friends PC and ran solitaire just when his boss stepped in to
- talk to him (his boss was in on the joke). You should have seen his
- face! Display a message box anytime you want, and YOU get to type
- the message. Reverse his mouse buttons? Sure, why not. Many other
- features not listed. Just hope he doesn't get this program before you do.

- Description :
-
- MnFind searches for text inside any text file on your hard drive(s).
- Why another text search facility?
- 1) Small executable, Loads fast, runs fast! (100% 'C')
- 2) Easy to use, standard Windows interface.
- 3) Lets you pre-define sets of search criteria.
- Try it, you'll probably like it. Enjoy : )
-
- Quick Start :
-
- Every dialog and option in MNFind is documented in detail in the
- online help. This Quick Start is to get you started with
- minimal fuss. For detailed help, just click the 'Help' button
- on any dialog.
-
- 1) Run MNFind.
- 2) In the 'Search Set' listbox -
- click once on the entry 'Windows Ini Files'.
- 3) In the 'What to Report' area -
- click on the 'Files containing string' radio button.
- 4) In the 'What to search for' edit box -
- type '386' (without the quotes).
- 5) Click the 'Search' button.
- --------- Thats it, you have run your first search! ----------
- What now?
- You should be looking at the Files containing string '386' dialog.
- You might see several files listed in the listbox. One of these
- is hopefully the file 'System.Ini'. Click on that entry once and
- then click on the 'Show/Hide' button. You can also just double
- click on the entry to perform the 'Show/Hide' function. You
- should now see a list of all the lines in the system.ini file
- that contain the text '386'. Once you have found a line of text
- that you wanted, you might then want to view/edit that file to
- see other lines or be able to cut and paste the line. Just click
- once on the filename and then click the 'Edit File' button, or
- just double click any line of text under the filename line.
