More Control, version 2.0a by Sloop Software
(c)Copyright 1993 Sloop Software a member of the ASP
REQUIRES WINDOWS 3.1
More Control allows you to quickly and easily access many of those
settings in WIN.INI and SYSTEM.INI that Microsoft did not see fit to
include in the Control Panel dialogs. Easily change the colors used
by the Windows help engine in displaying hypertext, the alignment of
drop down menus, the vertical spacing between icons, the font used to
display icon titles plus many other settings. Also, an easy to use
ini file editor is included as part of More Control.
Now includes CP Add-In. This CP module allows you to add any program
you want to the Control Panel dialog.
INSTALLATION:
Run install.exe for automatic installation.
Or, for manual install, perform the following:
1. Copy the files morecon.cpl, cpaddin.cpl and mcspin.dll to your
Windows SYSTEM directory.
2. Copy the files morecon.hlp and setfont.exe to your Windows directory.
That's it. From now on, when you run the Control Panel you should
have an additional icon in the Control Panel window labeled More Control
which will allow you to access the program. You will also have an icon
for the CP Add-In program. The online help gives full details on both
programs operation.
For more information on the Windows settings affected by More Control
see the files winini.wri and sysini.wri in your Windows directory. Also,
refer to the Windows Resource Kit available from Microsoft.
To uninstall More Control simply delete the files mentioned above. Note
that uninstalling More Control will NOT return your system settings to
their state before using More Control. There will also be a section
labeled [More Control] in win.ini that may be deleted.
