-
- What is MoonIcon?
- -----------------
- MoonIcon is a MicroSoft Windows 3.x program that displays the current
- phase of the Moon in an icon. The icon title displays the Moon's current
- location in the sky, or the last moonset/next moonrise time if the Moon is
- below the horizon.
-
- MoonIcon displays an analog clock (a clock with 'hands') either super-imposed
- on top of the Moon phase icon, or simply by itself. By double-clicking the
- icon, a screen displaying your local Sun and Moon rise and set times is
- displayed.
-
- Finally, you can specify the icon's title to display the current time and/or
- date in *many* different formats, as well as changing the icon's background
- color. MoonIcon also adjusts automatically for daylight savings/summer time
- for users in the United States, the UK, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
-
-
- Installing MoonIcon
- -------------------
- Simply use the Program Manager to create a New Program Icon in the group of
- your choice and set the "Working Directory" to the subdirectory where you
- installed the files. You may place the MOONICON.EXE file in the subdirectory
- of your choice, but MoonIcon MUST be able to find it's MOONICON.INI file.
- If it cannot, then the About box will be displayed each and every time you
- start the program. If you have trouble, you may also set the "Working
- Directory" to your Windows subdirectory explicitly, or just leave it blank to
- have it default to your Windows subdirectory. See the "Troubleshooting"
- section in the on-line help system for more information.
-
- I also highly recommend placing the Program Icon in the "Startup" group so it
- loads every time you start Windows.
-
- If you don't already have the file BWCC.DLL, make SURE you copy it to your
- Windows system subdirectory and erase any other older copies of it. See the
- file BWCC.TXT for more information.
