  7.                         MultiCX 2.75 (15.8.97)
  8.                  The ultimate Multi-Function-Commodity
  9. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
  10.  
  11. MultiCX  is the smallest Multi-Function-Commodity for the Amiga, thought
  12. as  a  replacement  for  many  larger  and  sometimes  badly  programmed
  13. programs.  It is a 100% pure commodity, which means that it does not use
  14. interrupts and no special input handlers. Some Patches (SetFunction) are
  15. installed in a very clean  way, so that they do not interfere with other
  16. programs which use the same vectors.
  17. As a result MultiCX can safely be disabled or removed at any time.
  18.  
  19. If you need a clean Commodity without bad hacks there's no alternative !
