SuperBar Version 1.2 is now ready.
I have uploaded SuperBar to ftp.cica.indiana.edu. It is
currently in /pub/pc/win3/uploads but will quickly be moved to
/pub/pc/win3/util. I'd like to get some feedback on this program.
I'd like to know if there is any interest in this program and if there
are Windows applications or system configurations which are not compatible
with SuperBar. It is shareware ($15 registration).
SuperBar is a Windows program for creating and editing user
configurable tool bars called SuperBars. These tool bars are
similar those found on newers Windows applications like Word
for Windows, Excel, Word Perfect, etc. A SuperBar consists
of a gray area containing several buttons, each assigned to an
application menu command. A SuperBar can be added to any
Windows application that is compatible with the SuperBar program.
Most Windows applications which have standard menu bars are
compatible with SuperBar. SuperBar can be used to increase
efficiency by placing commonly used menu commands on a SuperBar.
In addition to providing SuperBars, this program also includes
the ability to start Windows applications at the same location
on the desktop every time they are executed. The applications can
be run normally, minimized, maximized or hidden. A hidden
application runs normally but cannot be seen on the desktop.
This feature is useful for hiding utility programs which should
run in the background.
SuperBar may also be used as a replacement Task Manager. SuperBar
includes all of the functionlity of the Windows built-in Task
Manager including switching between applications, terminating
applications and rearranging the desktop.
Future plans include the ability to assign user-defined macros
to buttons and more button customization options.
Version 1.2 has many improvements over version 1.1, including:
- SuperBar Icon Manager for user-defined icons.
- SuperBars that wrap to new rows/columns if they won't fit in the window.
- Replacement Task Manager.
- Half spaces.
- Improved context sensitive help.
- Faster drawing of SuperBars.
- Several more button icons.
- Some minor bug fixes.
Please send any comments/suggestions/problems to:
wood@havedash.aer.loral.com
Thanks you in advance for any feedback you can give me.
