	Have you ever been in
the finder and opened two windows?  The first window you opened was a big one
and the second window was a smaller one that was on top of the big one. Now
you want to take a file, or folder, in the first larger window and put
it into the smaller window.  Go on, do it.  Oops, when you clicked on the
bigger window it was brought to the front, hiding the smaller window which
you wanted to put that file in.

	This init is designed to solve that problem.  If you hold down the
COMMAND-TAB keys at the time you move the folder from the big window
to the smaller window, the smaller window will not be hidded by the bigger
window! Rear Window effectively freezes the windows in place as long as you
hold down the command-tab.

	NOTE:  This init only works in unifinder.  Multifinder does a whole
lot of funny stuff that renders this init ineffective.

	Rear Window was written by Allan Foster, A great programmer who
does some neat stuff with the Mac.
