This file contains additional information about Appmen

Appmen is a utility and should not cause dammage but like all software
it will almost certainly contains some bugs so all normal care should be
taken (regular saving of documents etc.) as you should do always just
incase. Also:


THE AUTHOR OF THIS PROGRAM DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WITH REGARD TO THE
SOFTWARE AND THE ACCOMPANYING WRITTEN MATERIALS.  IN NO
EVENT SHALL THE AUTHOR BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF THE
SOFTWARE, EVEN IF THE AUTHOR HAS BEEN SPECIFICALLY ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.  THESE FILES HAVE BEEN CHECKED FOR VIRUSES
BEFORE RELEASE BUT THE AUTHOR CAN NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY VIRUSES 
THAT MAY HAVE INFECTED THE FILES ON BBS'S ETC. AFTER THE RELEASE.

YOUR USE OF THIS PROGRAM MEANS THAT YOU ACCEPT THESE TERMS.


Welcome to Appmen!  Appmen is a program that displays an icon near the top right hand
corner of you screen. By clicking on this icon you can switch to any program currently
running on you system.    If you put Appmen.exe in the startup group it will be loaded
everytime Windows starts.

Appmen is shareware NOT freeware.  This means that you may try appmen for up to 30
days but after that time you must either regester it (see below) or remove it from
your system.  You may distribute Appmen to your friends as long as you do not modify
any of the files and that you distribute it with all the files below.

APPMEN.EXE
APPMEN.TXT
DBAPPMON.VBX - Thanks to Dan Bystrom (E-Mail dan.bystrom@adb-partner.it-invest.se) 
	       for this freeware VBX

APPMEN22.BMP - picture of what the registered version looks like.
	       (Versions after 2.2 might look slightly different
	       but this picture gives a basic idea)

In addition to this it may be distributed with the following file.  (You may
or may not have got this file with APPMEN)


VBRUN300.DLL - People you distribute this program to will most likely have this already.
	       If you don't have this file yet (check your system directory) then you 
	       can get it from the internet address below.

NB.  This shareware can not be sold and the only charge that a shareware 
vendor can charge is the cost of the disk and distribution.  On a BBS the
only charge that can be made is the normal BBS charge if the BBS is a pay
BBS.  NO EXTRA CHARGE CAN BE MADE FOR APPMEN.  Also shareware vendors must
make it clear that APPMEN is shareware and inform the buyer of the shareware
concept.

If you register you will recieve the latest version of APPMEN.  Here are some things
that I have be working on for the next version:

-  Having icons in the menu
-  Having the icon of the current program instead of the "T"
-  Making the name in the APPMEN menu better match the name in TASKMAN.EXE


REGISTRATION:

There are 2 ways to register here is the hard way :

To register just send a 3.5" disk with a STAMPED SELF ADDRESSED ENVELOPE 
(big enough for a disk) and $10 (Australian) to:
 
		Dylan Radcliffe Programming
		14 Jenkinson St
		Indooroopilly
		Qld, 4068
		AUSTRALIA

OR 

If you don't want to bother with the envelope and disk add the following
amounts to the quoted prices above and below (If you live in another country
read bellow).  REMEMBER THOUGH TO INCLUDE YOU ADDRESS OR I WILL NOT BE
ABLE TO SEND THE DISK OUT.  ALSO INCLUDE YOUR NAME OR COMPANY NAME SO THAT
I CAN MAKE OUT A LICENCE CERTIFICATE.

In Australia:

+ $3.00 (Australian)

Other country:

+ $4.50 (Australian)
or
+ $3.00 (US)

I do not recommend cash and cannot be held responsible if it goes missing
or gets stolen, but I will accept it.  The best thing would be an Australian
cheque (check) made out to Dylan Radcliffe or any other safe way of getting 
money to me by post such as mail orders.  Sorry but at the moment NO CREDIT 
CARDS.  I also do not accept cheques of another currency (than Australian)
US dollars will be accepted and the cost will be $US8.  (Remember that if 
you do not send a disk and stamped seft addressed envelope you must add on 
the costs above.)

Registration entitles you to use appmen at one computer for as long as you
want and cheap upgrades to future versions of appmen and discounts off
my other software.  For information on site licences contact me.


KNOW BUGS:

Here are a few bugs in APPMEN v 1.11

 -  Name in menu is sometimes different to the name on the title bar of the 
    program or the name in taskman

    This bug appears to have been fixed in the registed v2.2 and the names 
    in the appmen menu are much closer to taskman

 -  Sometimes their is trouble switching to certain programs.  This is a 
    bug that is related to the first one.  I have had almost no problems in
    2.2

If you find a bug please contact me and inform me of it.

The main new features in 2.2 are:

  - pictures in menu
  - current task icon displayed
  - genral bug fixes
