- Maybe is distributed as part of a free set of cooperating programs, AWOL
-
- Utilities. This section explains how Maybe can work in conjunction with
-
- the other programs.

- Help on Wheels is an efficient and full-featured help server which displays
-
- help files on behalf of client applications. The help file you are reading is
-
- distributed alongside the Maybe application file as a separate Help on
-
- Wheels document.
-
-
-
- You can read this help at any time while using Maybe, either by selecting
-
- “Maybe Help” from the Help menu, or by pressing the Help or Command-?
-
- key. This version of Maybe has some support for the sophisticated
-
- features of Help on Wheels, such as context-sensitivity, casual displays,
-
- and “hot” hypertext buttons.
-
-
- This help file can be stored separately from the Maybe application,
-
- archived, or trashed, without affecting Maybe’s routine operation.

- Virtual Desktop, a virtual desktop manager, lets you define preset
-
- locations on the virtual desktop called “doors.” When you “open” a door,
-
- the desktop shifts to the preset location. Ordinarily, the user opens a
-
- door by clicking on a small iconic window that looks like a door. However,
-
- Virtual Desktop also has an option to save a very small document called a
-
- door file, whose name matches the name of a door. Opening a door file
-
- from Finder is another way to open the door.
-
-
-
- Maybe’s open item action type is appropriate for any alias to a document
-
- or application which you might like to work on in a preset location on the
-
- virtual desktop. If you ask Virtual Desktop to make a door file, and place
-
- it in a central location (for example, a Doors folder inside your
-
- Preferences folder), you can use it as the item to open before opening the
-
- target document or application.

- xMenu Events

-
- Menu Events is a small, single-purpose system extension which lets any
-
- program send Apple events to most high-level-event-aware applications
-
- having a menu bar. These “Menu events” let you query the contents and
-
- state of the application’s menus, then select a menu command and tell the
-
- target application to do it.
-
-
-
- As described in the help file for Menu Events, Maybe is one of the
-
- simplest ways to launch a Menu event. The Send AE action type lets you
-
- compose a single Menu event and choose its target, so that any program
-
- which can open a file (the converted alias), such as Finder, can indirectly
-
- send a Menu event.
-
-
- NOTE: Menu Events is intended for Macintosh programmers and those
-
- familiar with Apple event scripting. If your favorite archive site does not
-
- have Menu Events and its companion application Menu Grabber, you may
-
- request a copy from the author at the addresses listed above.
