RunProg RunProg allows you to run a program at a size
that you specify, maximized, minimized, normal,
hidden, or coordinates that you specify,
from the Program Manager or from your WIN.INI
file.
Print Switch The Print Switch program allows those users that
have a Hewlett Packard laser printer with a
postscript cartridge to switch easily back and
forth between HPPCL mode and postscript mode.
Pos Pos displays the mouse cursor position in relation
to the screen (screen coordinates) and in relation
to the window which has the input focus. Pos makes
a good addition to the Windows Software Development
Kit and is also useful when selecting monitor
resolutions. It was originally developed to
allow the user to move the mouse cursor to screen
positions ahead of time. In addition, Pos
can display the dimensions of a window.
Mem Mem can display the amount of memory free, the
largest block of memory free, the percent of
system resources free, and/or the amount of disk
space free on drives that you select.
Mem can sound an alarm when the disk space, free
memory, or percent of system resources free goes
below amounts that you specify (a different amount
may be specified for each disk drive).
SaveSet SaveSet allows you to cause the "Save Settings" Check
Box that appears when you exit Windows to be
automatically un-checked or checked.
ChCursor If you find that you sometimes lose track of the
mouse cursor on the screen, ChangeCursor will
allow you to press the right mouse button to
highlight the cursor. Other features include the
ability to position the cursor in the center of
the screen with a click of the right mouse button,
and the ability to hide the cursor when you start
typing and then have it displayed again when the
mouse is moved.
IconCalc A full-function calculator in an icon!
Lock Lock is a keyboard lock and screen saver. It will
automatically lock the keyboard after a certain
time.
Click Click will produce a keyboard "click". This is
especially useful to those users who have used
a keyboard click for DOS but have been unable to
find one for MS Windows. The duration and
pitch of the click may be easily changed by the
user.

DlFile

match the one specified. It can search a single
drive or an entire system.
