- DC Topper v1.2
-
- Copyright (c) 1991 Double Click Software
-
- Program by Michael B. Vederman and Keith Gerdes
-
- DC Topper v1.2 is a FREEWARE program. A FREEWARE program is one which you may
- freely distribute, but you cannot charge for it or alter the program or
- contents of the documentation in any manner. Double Click Software retains
- all copyright exclusive rights except exclusive distribution.
-
- ==============================================================================
-
- DC Topper will automatically select the window under the mouse (bring it to
- the top) when you are at the GEM desktop.
-
- Version 1.2 now works _much_ better inside programs, works with NeoDesk 3,
- and will not cause menu items or file selector entries to be 'clicked' on when
- the non-top window is under the menu or file selector.
-
- ==============================================================================
-
- ====================
- Installing DC Topper
- ====================
-
- >To install DC Topper:
- ----------------------
-
- 1) Place DCTOPPER.ACC in your bootup disk ROOT directory, or normal desk
- accessory bootup path.
-
- 2) Reboot the computer.
-
- When installed, any time you move over an inactive window, DC Topper will
- emulate a button click and bring the window to the top.
-
- If you have any item selected on the desktop or in any window, then the
- 'auto-topping' will not occur. Additionally, if you have either mouse
- button pressed down, the 'auto-topping' will not occur.
-
-
- =====================
- Configuring DC Topper
- =====================
-
- >To configure DC Topper:
- ------------------------
-
- 1) Select the 'DC Topper v1.2' entry from the DESK menu. An introduction
- alert will appear.
-
- 2) Click on the CONFIG button to go to the configuration alert.
-
- 3) You can have DC Topper ON or OFF when in programs. Click on the
- appropriate button. The configuration info will be saved back to
- DCTOPPER.ACC. Make sure DCTOPPER.ACC is on the root of your bootup
- disk, or you will get a save error.
-
- NOTE: When you are in a program, the window under the mouse will _always_
- be topped, unless you have either MOUSE BUTTON PRESSED.
-
- NOTE: DC Topper uses several undocumented memory locations in order to
- properly work. AMERICAN TOS versions 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 2.05 and 3.01
- will definitely work. DC Topper may not work on other ROMs.
