- The Initial Screen comes up with all of the Defined Groups
- showing in the box on the left. Clicking on a group reveals its
- group contents in the Contents window. Once selected, the group
- can be deleted by pushing the Delete Group button OR immediately
- be run by pushing the Run Group button OR be modified by pushing
- the Modify Group button. Both the Modify Group button and the
- Make a New Group button will take you to the Setup Screen where
- you can either modify or make groups.
-
- Groups are easily established and changed on the Setup
- Screen. Upon entering the Setup Screen, the Drive, Directory and
- Files present in the directory in which you placed GroupWorker
- are already showing. To add an application to a group, simply
- double click the program's name in the Programs-Click to Add box.
- The program name is then automatically (and alphabetically)
- loaded into the Programs Selected- Click to Delete Box. You can
- move around drives and directories using the Drive and Directory
- boxes, and change the kind of executable file you wish to add by
- pressing one of the four buttons (*.exe, *.com, *.bat, *.pif)
- under the Programs-Click to Add box.. (Please note that if you
- add a .pif file AND are operating in Windows Standard mode, your
- group execution will be halted until the non-Windows program is
- closed.) Programs, by default, are added to the Programs Selected
- box in capital letters, indicating that they will be started by
- GroupWorker in their normal Windows size. If you wish to have
- some programs started as minimized icons, just press the min
- button on top of the Programs-Click to Add box before selecting
- them. Filenames for these programs will be listed in small
- letters. Re-setting the default start-up window size is easily
- done by clicking the Norm button. If you make a mistake, or just
- change your mind about a file you've added or its starting size,
- you can easily delete it by double-clicking it's name in the
- Programs Selected- Click to Delete Box.
-
- Once you are happy with your new group, it is easily saved
- with the Save Group button, which will lead to your being asked
- for the name of your new group. Back in the Setup Screen,you may
- proceed to set up as many work groups as you like. When you have
- finished setting up your groups, simply press the Done button,
- and you will be returned to the Initial Screen, where all of your
- new groups are waiting for your use. If you ever have any
- questions about using GroupWorker, you can click the Help menu
- button, where these instructions will be displayed. (To close the
- Help window, just use the control box in the upper left hand
- corner.)
-
- When you are finally finished using GroupWorker for now,
- just click on the File menu item Exit. GroupWorker will then
- vanish until next called for use.
