- Product: DaMenu - DOS Application Menuing Utility
-
- Description:
-
- All new version 2.0! Same great look, more feel! DaMenu has come into
- it's own as a *truely simple* point and shoot DOS menu. With DaMenu, you
- gain quick access to your DOS programs by simply hitting a function key,
- or using the mouse to move to the selection (point) and click once on the
- selection's button (shoot). Two simple keystokes ('M' and <ENTER>) get
- you into DaMenu from the DOS prompt, and one keystroke or click will get
- you into your program (application). No more fumbling around with the
- DOS prompt! A great way to really improve productivity!
-
- Version 2 adds some great new features such as:
-
- * SubMenu support allows you to group similar applications together
- on a menu page. You can have nine pages with nine submenus per
- page for a total of 648 application slots!
-
- * CD-Rom Awareness - checks to make sure you have the correct
- CD in the drive before trying to launch the CD application
-
- * On-Line Help - available on the main DaMenu screen for quick
- access and fast answers to your problems
-
- * On-Line Registration - For shareware users only, allows you to
- fill out a registration form on your computer and send it
- directly to your printer or a file
-
- * File browser - allows you to navigate your hard disk when setting
- up an new application, much like the Windows counterpart
-
- * Calculator - for the times when you can't seem to locate yours
-
- * Control Panel - for screen color adjustment, customizable screen
- saver specification and other operational parameters
-
- * Application specific password protection - allows you to password
- protect your applications, each with it's own unique password!
- Two levels of protection - User and Administrator
-
- * Spacebar page advancing - allows quicker menu page navigation by
- flipping menu pages with the touch of the spacebar
-
- * The ability to return to the launched menu page upon leaving an
- application - so that you don't have to cycle through a book of
- pages to get to an app on the same page
-
- * and probably the best of all, a customizeable screen blanker -
- use any .EXE as a screen saver to display a slide show of
- graphics, or incorporate your favorite DOS saver, or write your
- own!

- * Password protection on 'Exit to DOS'
- * Password protection ability to protect menu modifications
- * Easy installation on your hard disk
- * Attractive on screen display with 9 apps per screen and point and

- access to the same amount of DOS memory as if they were run from
- the DOS prompt.
- DaMenu is great for all levels of users, and it really makes it easy for
- children to load there favorite programs. Application specific password
- protection will not allow them to fiddle with Mom & Dad's programs!
