Program Manager Wrapper for NT is designed to be a wrapper around Program 
Manager instead of a replacement for Program Manager.  This approach gives the 
conveniences of a shell replacement, while guaranteeing complete 
compatibility with applications which require or assume Program Manager's
services.  This also guarantees that should you decide for some inconceivable 
reason to stop using Program Manager Wrapper for NT, Program Manager will 
reflect all the changes you have made to your system since installing it.

The idea behind Program Manager Wrapper for NT's is simple.  A menu is created 
for each group in Program Manager.  One of the groups can be specified as the "button" 
group (see  The Configuration Dialog for details).  The button group is used to make a 
quick launch button bar.  Then Program Manager is optionally hidden from view to keep 
the desktop uncluttered while giving you access to all your programs.  Program Manager 
Wrapper for NT is not crippled in any way.  However it is not freeware.  Try Program 
Manager Wrapper for NT.  If you find it useful the registration for an individual 
user is $15.  Unlimited site licenses are available for $150.  Please send registration

Release Information
---------------------
11/93 - Initial release

1/94 - Release 1.1
 * Holding down the control key when pressing a button or using a menu
   will show the application information instead of launching the
   application

 * Putting /f on the command line will force PMWrap to change to the
   directory specified before the application before launching it.  This should not
   be necessary, but can be tried if the proper directory does not seem
   to be set.

 * If more than one line of menu items is present, the launch bar is no longer cut 
   off

 * Common Groups are now handled properly (with thanks to Dale Thompson for 
   pointing out not only the problem, but also the solution).

 * A Refresh Information item was added to the Options menu to allow the 
   information from Program Manager to be refreshed without having to hide 
   Program Manager.
