David Aylott's Utilities for Windows Version 2.1 Introduction: This collection of utilities performs some useful tasks for users of Windows 3.x and Windows 95. The utilities have been released as Shareware - you are welcome to try them out free of charge for a period of 30 days. If you find them useful please pay the author as detailed below otherwise you are required to delete them from your PC. Your support will make it possible to produce updates and additional Windows applications. You are encouraged to pass these utilities on to friends and colleagues but please keep them in their original format and with all files included in the package. Installation: Copy all of the files into any folder (eg C:\WINUTILS). To make life easier for you, the folder should be included in your PATH. The .DLL files can be moved to the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM folder if desired. You can then have shortcuts to the utilities at your fingertips (eg on the Windows 95 desktop). The Utilities: CLOSEALL - closes all applications and windows ENDWIN - exits from Windows EXIT2DOS - exits Win95 to the DOS prompt MINALL - minimises all applications and windows NPAD - allows the notepad default fonts, margins and filetype to be changed PLAYSND - plays a single .WAV file REGISTER - to register the Windows Utilities RESTWIN - restarts windows without rebooting RUNQUIT - runs a program and then exits from Windows RUNSND - allows a different sound to be associated with each and every application TIMEPROG - runs a program for a specified time (eg to limit use of games) WINTIME - windows scheduler that runs programs or send messages at specified times WPAD - allows the wordpad default fonts, margins and filetype to be changed For more information please refer to the WINUTILS.HLP file Payment: To receive the registration code to run the utilities on a single PC, please send US$15 to: David Aylott 2/35 Bertram Street ELSTERNWICK VIC 3185 Australia This one small fee gives you access to the full power of all these useful utilities and any future updates or bug fixes.
