Loader for Windows version 1.3 Copyright 93 by Ling Siow Chang and Mei-Hsin Jenny Chang Introduction: Loader is a very flexible program to load and change your Wallpaper and Sounds. We designed this program to be powerful but easy to use (We hope this is true). The Loader for Windows program consists of two modules: Loader and Loader Runner. This program is shareware. For more info, please read the help file. Tested with Windows 3.1. Please distribute widely. Modules: 1. Loader allows you to configure the various options associated with Wallpaper and Sound such as assigning BMP and WAV files, selecting the sound player, Load Now option, sorting, etc. 2. Loader Runner does the actual loading and changing of Wallpaper and Sound when it is ran. It is suggested that you put it in the Startup Group of the Program Manager. It executes, does its job, and disappears without taking precious resources. Registration: Loader is a shareware program. Notice that there are no nag screens nor disabled options.

Loader Installation Files that come with Loader: LOADER.EXE LDRUNNER.EXE LOADER.HLP README.TXT LOADER.INI Methods: 1. You need the file VBRUN200.DLL (Visual Basic run-time file) in your Windows directory (\WINDOWS or \WINDOWS\SYSTEM) since this is a Visual Basic program. You can get it from where you obtain Loader. 2. The first four files should be installed in their own directory (such as C:\WINUTIL\LOADER). 3. Attach LOADER.EXE icon to a Group in Program Manager (easiest way is to drag and drop from File Manager). 4. Attach LDRUNNER.EXE icon to the Startup Group in Program Manager. 5. Start Loader and configure the options to your hearts content. When you quit from Loader for the first time with changes, LOADER.INI will be created in your Windows directory. The alternative way is to copy the included LOADER.INI file to the Windows directory. (c) 1993 Ling Siow Chang & Mei-Hsin Jenny Chang
