The wondow pops up at the pointer and lists either active screens or active windows on the current screen. It gives names, sizes, etc. You can also launch pre defined programs that are listed in a separate menu, as well as save the current screen as a bitmap if you have a specifac iff.library (rename it as pic.library). It puts the screen into ram. It os a really good program; I have 1.0. David :) -- David Tiberio SUNY Stony Brook 2-3481 AMIGA DDD-MEN -- Any students from SUNY Oswego? Please let me know! :)
