WinZoom README 25/May/2014
Introduction:
AmigaOS 3.x's possibilities of arranging windows using standard Intuition
gadgets are quite poor by today's standards. The only enhancement since 1985
has been the introduction of the zoom-gadget with OS2.0, which would've
eventually been dropped in later versions, according to DevCon '93 notes.
WinZoom tries to remedy this situation, allowing fast arrangement of windows
using various hotkey combinations. By pressing keys you can:
- maximize the active window on the current screen
- shrink the active / all windows to minimum or predefined dimensions
- cascade all windows
- restore windows to their former dimensions
- maximize a window to the left/right/upper/lower half of the screen
- switch between windows
Requirements:
Any machine running OS3.x (maybe 2.x - not tested). Works fine on AmigaOS4
and MorphOS, too.
Version information:
This release has been developed and tested on various Amiga hardware, both
real and emulated, but may contain bugs, crash your machine and frighten your
cat.
Changes for V1.0:
- initial release
