It also has a very useful Quick Launch feature. WindowMagic uses a drag & drop interface to make icon customization quick, easy and fun. Installation 1) Start Windows and select the Program Manager [File] & [Run] options then type SYSEDIT [RETURN] 2) Select the WIN.INI file from the group of windows 3) Add WMAGIC.EXE to the end of the "run=" line. Please make sure that it is at the END OF THE LINE! Be sure to include the directory name if you did not install WindowMagic into the \WINDOWS or \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directories, for example... run=\WMAGIC\WMAGIC.EXE or run=other programs \WMAGIC\WMAGIC.EXE Or alternatively you may place the WMAGIC>EXE in the Startup applications Group file. If you choose this option ignore steps 1 through 3. 4) Finally, quit and restart Windows to activate the program, or use the Program Manager [File] & [Run] menu items to start WindowMagic. /************************************************************************* * * Important for UPGRADING USERS!!! * * If you downloaded an early version of WindowMagic, it would be a good * idea to do a del \windows\wm*.* before unzipping the new files! A lot * of file names were changed. * * Be SURE to replace the run=WMDRIVER.EXE with run=WMAGIC.EXE in your * WIN.INI file (SEE ABOVE) * *************************************************************************/ ADDITIONAL NOTES: If you are reinstalling WindowMagic you may delete the CPALETTE.DLL & BWCC.DLL files. Be aware that other commercial programs may have also installed these two files, so you may want to back them up first. You may also delete the PMSUPER.DLL file on the Windows directory. PLEASE do this at the DOS prompt NOT in a DOS Box. That is to say don't do this with WindowMagic loaded!!! Also, Please note that since new files are being loaded you will have lost all of your previous Group icon selections. This won't happen in future releases. After re-installation: When you restart Windows, if you get a "WMDRIVER.EXE File Not Found" message, replace the line "run=WMDRIVER.EXE" in the WIN.INI file with "run=WMAGIC.EXE". (See above installation instructions) /************************************************************************* * How to use ************************************************************************** WindowMagic uses a simple drag and drop interface.
