  [ This page was edited by The Starman to clarify some of the statements 
    but primarily to mention that I added the PGP-signature files to the
    distribution.  I tried many times to contact the program's author to
    discuss changes with him; but couldn't reach him!    T.S.  19 AUG 99.]


 Program Name:
	                          iconmgr.exe
				  ===========
 Function:
 ========

	  The Desktop Icon Manager allows the user to save and restore the
   positions of the Desktop Icons.  Right click the Desktop Icon Manager's
   tray icon to activate.


 Features:
 ========
	    User defined HotKeys for the popup menu, save icons, restore
        icons, and hide icons.

	Automatic restoration of icons' positions when the video mode is
        switched.

	User selectable "Auto-restore on startup" and "auto-save on exit"
        options.

	Optional installation as a Tray item.  If the user selects to NOT
    run the program as a Tray item AND no hotkey is defined for the popup
    menu, then the default hotkey sequence of "Ctrl + Alt + F1" will be
    assigned to the popup menu.

	Ability to Hide/UnHide the desktop icons.  Note that you CAN hide
  the desktop icons and then exit the program -- leaving the icons hidden.
  This is not a bug; it was implemented intentionally.  (Hiding the icons
  de-'selects' any desktop icons which were "highlighted" so they will not
  be selected when the icons are unhidden.)

	Two command line parameters are implemented. "-s" which will save
  the Desktop Icons' positions and "-r" which will restore the Desktop
  Icon's positions.  The program will exit, without loading, immediately
  after saving or restoring.

	LEFT-clicking the Desktop Icon Manager's tray Icon will enable or
  DISABLE the use of defined hotkeys AND the automatic restoration of icons
  upon video mode change. (Note: the tray icon's screen color will change
  from blue to black when disabled!)

      The Desktop Icon Manager creates "iconmgr.ini" in the Windows folder;
  this file contains the Desktop's Icon information for ANY saved screen
  resolutions and also contains the settings for "iconmgr.exe" -- a tempory
  file "mmf?.tmp" is also created in the TEMP directory.


 Known Bugs:
 ==========
	   IF the icons are hidden AND then you change either the Desktop's
  "pattern" or Wallpaper, WINDOWS will NOT repaint the Desktop properly
   when you move icons or 'windows' around.
