This way I can understand if i have to continue the developement or to leave everything and go to mountains for a walk :-) WHY EXTMAN ? ExtMan was born because I was tired and bored by continuously opening and closing windozes only to edit, add or modify a dosdriver or move a printer in the devs:printers directory. So in a black and stormy night I decided to write this simple proggy that permits to handle easily the "system extensions". WHAT IS EXTMAN ? ExtMan is an "Extension Manager". You can consider extensions all the files that add some property, patch or functionality to the system, that is: Dataypes DosDrivers Keymaps Monitors Printers Startup (Wbstartup) Extman permits to mount or dismount these extensions without taking a walk in the system directories. INSTALLATION Now you can use the Installer! HOW IT WORKS I hope that the program its simple enaught not to need boring instructions. In fact Extman was born for those people who doesn' t have a lot of experience with the AmigaOs. (and also for italian people who never reads the docs :-) Extman has also a usefull "help online" option: by pointing a button with the mouse you will get immediatly an explanatory comment on the bottom of the window. ExtMan saves automatically (at exit) a preference file called ExtMan.prefs in the program directory HOTKEYS F10 - ZipWindow Esc - Exit ADDRESSES Send comments, suggestions, bug reports, PowerPC boards :-) to: Snail Mail Alain Martini Fraz.
