WinShade 2.0

What is WinShade?

WinShade is a Windows 95/NT desktop utility that makes it easy to switch between 
programs.  WinShade allows you to assign various commands to mouse clicks that 
occur on a window’s title bar.  In addition to minimize and maximize commands, 
WinShade offers two special commands.  The rollup/unroll command allows you to 
reduce a window to its smallest vertical dimension.  In most cases the window 
will "roll up" into its title bar, leaving only a thin horizontal window on 
the desktop.  After working in another application, you can click back on the 
rolled-up window's title bar and the window will expand to its previous 
dimensions.  WinShade also provides a "Send to bottom" feature that allows you 
to send that window to the bottom of the window stack.  This feature is easier 
and quicker than the standard Alt+Tab.  WinShade works with almost all windows, 
including dialog boxes, child windows, and maximized windows.  Customizable 
options include the ablity to remove the tray icon, change the way various 
commands are activated, and assign sounds and hot keys.  WinShade comes with 
a complete help system and can easily be installed or removed.


How do I install it?

It is recommended that you use the supplied Setup.exe application to install WinShade.  
The Control Panel Add/Remove Programs applet will allow you to uninstall WinShade at a 
future date if you wish to do so.  If you have a previous version of WinShade, you 
should install this version over the old version.  However, you must first exit any 
previous version of WinShade before running Setup.exe.
