Launchpad 95 Version 1.01
Copyright (C) 1995 Prasad Thammineni
All Rights Reserved

This version fixes a bug in the Setup Wizard of V 1.0.

Note:
=====
This version has been packaged in such a way that the size of the executables
is smaller than the previous versions. The current versions makes use of the
DLLs supplied with Windows 95 instead of packaging the code with the
executables. Both setup wizard and the Launchpad have decreased in size by
three fourth's. To make sure the required DLLs have been installed by
Win 95 you should have installed Wordpad or Paint as part of Accessories.
The DLLs that are used by Launchpad and which are installed in Windows\system
directory are MFC30.DLL, MFCANS32.DLL, MFCUIA32.DLL. If you still have problems
installing check for the exitence of these DLLs in Windows\System directory.
If not found install Wordpad or Paint from Add/Remove Programs applet of
control panel.

Next Version:
    The next version is in the works now. Some of the features you may
    see in the next version are:
	* Your suggestions 
	* Support for multiple associated folders
	* Support for Start Menu of the Task Bar
	* Active Windows List
	* Active process list with Process control - terminate etc.
	* Ability to explore folders in the launchpad either as menus 
	  or as list views/icon views.

I would appreciate it a lot if you can send me feedback by electronic 
mail to 102706.3167@compuserve.com on Internet. Suggestions are welcome.
