SUGGESTED SHORT DESCRIPTION
---------------------------
ToyBox II: A Graphical Menu System for Kids of All Ages
SUGGESTED MEDIUM DESCRIPTION
----------------------------
ToyBox II - a new graphical DOS menu system designed with
kids in mind. Powerful, but so simple, even young children can
use it to start their own programs without assistance. Large 3-D
buttons with colorful Windows-compatible icons represent your
programs. Superb EGA/VGA graphics. Mouse optional.
SUGGESTED LONG DESCRIPTION
--------------------------
Finally a graphical interface designed with kids in mind.
ToyBox II is a new graphical DOS menuing system with the powerful
features adults need, but so simple, even young children can use
it to start their own programs without assistance. ToyBox II
displays large 3-D buttons with colorful, Microsoft Windows-
compatible icons to represent your DOS and Windows programs. So
instead of trying to remember cryptic DOS commands, you or your
child can press a single key or click a mouse button to start any
program. To make things easier for small hands, all mouse buttons
have the same effect and no double-clicks are required. You can
also set options that prevent inquisitive young power users from
leaving ToyBox II or accessing any areas you don't want them to
get into.
Behind the scenes, ToyBox II's features are anything but
childlike: multiple levels of nested menu pages that can hold
several thousand programs; passwords for programs and pages;
hotkeys; variable program parameters; file pick-lists for easily
adding programs; and a built-in icon editor for designing your own
icons. ToyBox II can run any COM, EXE, or BAT file, or any DOS
command, and it does not remain in memory while it is running your
programs. Superb EGA/VGA graphics.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
-------------------
MS-DOS 3.0 or higher / EGA or VGA / 512K RAM / Hard disk /
Mouse (optional)
REGISTRATION FEE/BENEFITS
-------------------------
Registration fee is $29.00. Registered users receive a disk
containing the latest version of ToyBox II, as well as a
collection of several hundred Microsoft Windows icons that can be
used in ToyBox II. Free technical support.
VERSION HISTORY
---------------
Version 2.00 was the initial release of ToyBox II, a much
more powerful follow-on to the original ToyBox program. Version
2.01 fixed one small bug and made some minor changes to the
graphical interface. This version had very limited distribution.
Version 2.02 fixes another small bug and makes some more very
minor changes to the graphics.
