Here’s what an Apple programmer can build in his spare time: a graceful, beautifully-designed shareware application-switcher for System 7. The Tilery puts up an icon tile for each application you have running under System 7. If you click a tile, the corresponding application comes to the front. Option-clicking hides the previous application as the new application comes forward. If The Tilery’s tiles are all hidden behind other windows, moving the mouse to a hot spot in a corner of the main screen brings them forward.
What you need
System 7.0 or later.
Installation summary
Open the SOFTWARE SAMPLER folder on the CD-ROM. Open the Tilery folder; if you like, drag the The Tilery program icon to your hard drive.
To use The Tilery, double-click the application to open it. The Tilery’s floating tiles appear on the screen. (Hint: You’ll probably want to put an alias of The Tilery into your Startup Items folder so that it’s always handy and running. You’ll never use the Application menu again!)
The manual
The Tilery’s user guide is a double-clickable electronic manual. You’ll find it inside the The Tilery folder.
