Short: Shows a gauge bar while booting, BETA !!!

NAME
BootGauge 0.3
Copyright © 1995 by Timo C. Nentwig
PURPOSE
My A4k30 needs about 1min to boot. It was boring to wait all the
time and just seeing a black screen.
I tried a boot picture but I wasn't much more fun.
I had long time dreamed to have such tool but when I saw that the
MAC (Sys7.5.1+) had a boot gauge bar I began to develop an equal
program.
BootGauge opens its own window on its own screen and executes an
alternative startup-sequence.
So it displays a gauge bar while booting.
