DC PopBar v1.2
Copyright (c) 1991 Double Click Software
Program by Michael B. Vederman and Keith Gerdes
DC PopBar v1.2 is a SHAREWARE program. A SHAREWARE 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.
If you decide you like the program, then send a programmers contribution of
$20 (US funds, no foreign checks, please) for the time and effort we have put
into this to make it much improved.
==============================================================================
DC PopBar gives the GEM desktop a 'popup' menu of the menubar entries.
Now all menu entries are available in a popup menu wherever the mouse is.
This new version gives DC Popbar some nice features, such as auto-highlighted
menu entries in the popup, and the ability to center the mouse under one of
the menu titles. Plus, drawing the menu is faster now.
==============================================================================
====================
Installing DC PopBar
====================
>To install DC PopBar:
----------------------
1) Place DCPOPBAR.ACC in your bootup disk ROOT directory, or normal desk
accessory bootup path.
2) Reboot the computer.
When installed, any time you click the RIGHT MOUSE button, a popup menu
will appear where the mouse is.
=====================
Configuring DC PopBar
=====================
>To configure DC PopBar:
------------------------
1) Click the RIGHT MOUSE button to bring up the PopBar menu.
2) Click on the CONFIG button to go to the configuration dialog.
3) Click on the desired button for the cold or warm start (if that is
what you want to do)
- or -
Click on the menu title you wish the mouse to be centered under when the
menu appears.
4) For the question "Use <ALT> Key?", answer:
YES - if you want to press the <ALTERNATE> key at the same time you click
the right mouse button to bring up DC Popbar, or
NO - if you want a plain ole right mouse click to bring it up.
NOTE: DC PopBar uses several undocumented memory locations in order to
properly work. AMERICAN TOS versions 1.0, 1.2, 1.4 and 1.6
will definitely work. DC PopBar will not work on ROMs 2.0 or above.
===============
Using DC PopBar
===============
To use DC PopBar, simply press the RIGHT MOUSE button at any time. The
DC PopBar manu will appear at the mouse.
Click on the desired menu entry or CANCEL to not do anything.
Additionally, you can perform a cold or warm boot. Just click on the
appropriate button from the CONFIG dialog. You will be asked to confirm
the reboot.
