This program is a kind of TSR for Windows.
It includes some features as: calling the screen saver, displaying the 
resources, exiting Windows etc...

This version runs correctly under Windows 3.1 and Progman Manager. I do not 
have any shell as PCShell Windows or Norton Desktop Window, so, I didn't test
it under those environments.

To use it:

1) you can put it in the Windows Startup group

2) To add an application, just click on the Setup button (I let you guess 
which one is it, but if you wanna cheat, you can right-click on the buttons 
or click on the '?');

Then, Select a slot. Click on open, then select the .EXE you want to put in 
your application list.
Then, enter a name for the application. 

After you've installed your applications, you'll be able to run 'em directly
from the Application menu (a clue: it's the button with the 2 windows inside)

3) switches:

   /IC    to use the built-in calculator (Not really ok)
   /TSK   to tell to SPEEDM to replace TaskMan by MTASK.EXE
          Obviously SPEEM won't erase TAKSMAN, it will just take the control
          of the keyboard to detect the CTRL-ESC
   
   About the Task Manager, The button Get Info does nothing for the moment.
   I still have to do it, but you know, I got to seek for spare time !!!



A part from that I think the other options are ez to use.

The resource and the ScreenSaver (to stop it) icons are some switches.
Click one time to enable then click again to disable.


                             ********************


I've included the sources to help anyone who wants to do the same thing or
something similar. (read the begining of HOOK.CPP)
They are commented (I hope well)

To build SPEEM.EXE and MTASK.EXE:

I made a project file for Borland C++ 4.5 and a MAK file for Visual C++ 1.0
They are in their own directories.
If you want to compile the project you will have to copy the common stuff into
the directory from where you wanna compile the project.
For example: if you have C:\MSVCSRC\HOOK
In this directory you need all the files from HOOK/MSC and the files from 
HOOK/COMMON. Not really convinient but I maintain the both version on two
different machines.

There is no special options for the compiler.
But, if you want to use some optimizations feel free.
Speedm.exe has been optimize for size.

About the DLL.
I'm sorry but I didn't really finish it, so some things have to be done.
It works pretty well but you will have some problems I think with the 
Floats.
And I didn't upload it with the rest. Just compile it.

If you use those routines to make your own program, please, the only thing
I ask you is just to put my name in the credits list. That will make me happy
and you'll just waste 25 seconds to type it.
