Quick Run v.1.0 By James Bell
*****************************************************************************
Introduction
Quick Run is a very simple little utility for quickly getting a directory
listing and/or running a Windows application. I wrote it so I could easily
locate and run whatever project I'm working on.
How to use Quick Run
Quick Run has no parameters or settings, simply install it into your
favorite group of Program Manager with "File", then "New".
When you launch Quick Run you'll see a small directory listing and you can
simply double-click on the EXE file you wish to run. Quick Run expects to
load and run Windows applications and isn't designed to run DOS programs,
or "associations" you may have listed in WIN.INI.
If you try to run a non-EXE file, you'll be warned, but it will try to load
and run the file (It will probably crash and burn, but usually won't bring
Windows down with it).
Quick Run minimizes itself to an icon as soon as you launch an application.
The one other feature it has is an extra choice on its System Menu box to
quickly leave Windows altogether.
About Quick Run
Quick Run is part of a continuing series of small Windows utilities I keep
needing/writing, so if you would like to see the rest of them and/or get
the latest version(s), register Quick Run by sending me $10.
I'd appreciate hearing your ideas/comments/bug reports as well:
