- ICONIFY
-
- With Iconify you can temporarily hide windows on the Workbench screen,
- either with a hotkey, or by doubleclicking in them (with a qualifier down).
- Care has been taking to only iconify windows which can handle it. A window
- can be iconified if it is:
-
- - resizable or refreshable
- - not gimmezerozero
- - doesn't have a requester or menu up or is refreshing
-
- An iconified window appears as an icon on the workbench screen. By
- doubleclicking on that icon the window will be restored. Menufy
- has the same functionality as Iconify, but hides windows as a
- menu item in the Tools menu on the Workbench screen.
-
-
- TOOLTYPES
-
- CX_PRIORITY Priority of this commodity in the CX inputevent
- handling chain.
- Default: 0
-
- IQUAL CX style qualifier which indicates that
- doubleclicking in a window means `Iconify!'.
- Only control, lalt and ralt are recognized!
- Default: control
-
- IKEY Standard CX style hotkey to iconify a window.
- Default: control f10
-
- Note that the default doubleclick qualifier and hotkey for Iconify
- and Menufy are the same. It is unlikely that both programs will be
- used at the same time, but if you do (why), you'll have to change
- the tooltypes for one of them.

-
- REQUIREMENTS
-
- Obviously Iconify requires AmigaDOS Release 2.0 since it is a commodity.
- If you don't have AmigaDOS 2.0, you really should get it.
- Given the nature of this program (an unsupported hack) it may or may not
- work with future revisions of the operating system.
-
-
-
- INSTALLATION
-
- Just put Iconify and Iconify.info in sys:wbstartup and provide the
- tooltypes you want. Make sure the qualifiers and key you indicate
- with IQUAL and IKEY don't interfere with another commodity, like
- ClickToFront by Mike Sinz.

- WARNING
-
- Playing with windows you don't 'own' is always tricky business. Though I
- believe all possible conflicts have been prevented, it might be possible
- that by using this program situations emerge which confuze the OS and
- lead to a software failure. In other words don't experiment with it when
- you haven't saved that file you are editing yet. Remember you use this at
- your own risk!
