Refresh is a small app which sends a repaint event to every window currently
visible. It's main use is for programmers, who often end up with corrupted
screens while debugging programs (especially if you're forced to use
Watcom's crappy debugger (grrr)), however some buggy video drivers and
programs can also leave rubbish on the screen.
Refresh may be run in two modes. When run ordinarily, Refresh displays
an icon at the bottom of the screen. Double clicking on this icon will
result in a refresh event. Alternatively, if it's run with the command
line;
REFRESH /NOWINDOW
Refresh will not display an icon, and causes the screen to be repainted
immediately. This is useful in conjunction with a program like Dropper
or WinDock.
Refresh is free, and may be distributed to anyone as long as this file is
distributed with it. Source code is available from the author on request.
