- SMILERSHELL/95 for Windows 95 and Windows NT
-
- SmilerShell/95 is a compact yet powerful Windows 95/NT control center and
- command line that takes NO space on your desktop. It looks like a simple
- command line, but in reality it's more like a cross between Dashboard and
- 4DOS, without heavy memory requirements. Its quick directory-change
- command DC lets you type the first few letters of any endpoint target
- directory, on any drive, and instantly switch to that directory. And if
- you set its "Sync With Explorer" switch, it'll keep Explorer's current
- directory synchronized with SmilerShell/95. Combine DC with Sync and
- you'll never again have to tediously click up and down a file manager
- tree! If you use SmilerShell/95 ONLY as a navigation shortcut for
- Explorer, it's well worth it.
-
- But then there's the real-time memory/resources monitor, icon-menu "Apps"
- launcher (easier than Start, and more flexible), multiple commands on one
- line, 4DOS-like aliases (type-in or on Function keys), command completion,
- even an alarm clock with a settable reminder message.
-
- SmilerShell/95 takes NO space on your desktop. Usually it's just a tiny
- button that hops into the title bar of your currently-active application.
- Left-click the button to reveal the SmilerShell/95 window, or right-click
- to see your Apps menu.
-
- SmilerShell features Drag and Drop, command completion, full File
- Associations support, full control over "inactive" windows, built in
- FileFind. Launch your word processor with the file to edit as a
- parameter, and avoid the File|Open dialog. Fast! There's much more than
- a "DOS command line."
-
- Not to ignore the top-rated command line. It's got command history,
- editing, and search. It will handle anything you throw at it, including
- pipes and redirection, batch files, PIF and Win95 LNK files, filenames
- with embedded spaces, and file associations (just give the filename, no
- need to specify the program). Its built-in Show command works like a
- little Explorer window. And it runs multiple commands on one line like
- 4DOS ... which, when combined with its parameterized aliases, gives you a
- built-in batch-like scripting language.
-
- SmilerShell/95 takes up only about 250K of disk space, and uses less than
- 100K of RAM and 1% of resources while running. And it won't clutter up
- your computer by spreading bits of itself throughout your system, the way
- so many other Windows programs do.
