1. WHAT IS CLIPPER?
-------------------

Clipper was designed to be a small, effective application to take down notes and save them
for future use. It could be used to take down text from the Internet quickly and save it for
future use. However, Clipper v1 had many flaws, which are hopefully corrected in Clipper v2.

Clipper 2 now includes these updates:

- Save as txt, clb, bat, htm, html and many more.
- Runs in system tray for minimal space usage.
- Save as Default option (CTRL-D) to quickly save current text as Default.txt
- Cleaner interface
  - No menus
  - One click toolbar does everything
  - Status bar shows CAPS Lock and NUM Lock status
- Can resize
- System Tray menu can perform the following functions:
  - Show
  - Maximise
  - Minimise
  - Save
  - Save As Default
  - Exit

And best of all, Clipper v2 is 100%, absolutely FREE!

4. LETTER FROM !RUN SOFTWARE
----------------------------

Dear User,

Thank you for downloading Clipper v2. It is absolutely FREE, so don't trash it because you
think you have to pay for it.

If you read Section 1, you will have seen that Clipper is a utility for quickly writing down
and saving notes. I recommend you use it to quickly save text off the Internet. I frequently
find myself wanting to save source code or whatever from the Internet and keep on having to
load Notepad. Clipper doesn't take up taskbar space, as it runs in the System Tray, so you
will not have to have a clustered taskbar when you run it.

Special thanks must go to Ben Baird for the Gradient Titlebar source code. (modGradient.bas &
messages.bas) Below are the program credits:

DEVELOPED USING:	Microsoft Visual Basic 5 Learning Edition
DEVELOPED BY:		Peter McMahon
