                        ...I'll stop here this time.

                How to Use:
                        Run wtimer2.exe from windows (from windows 95,
                        you can also run from dos prompt.)

                        -Hold down left mouse button and drag to move
                         the position.

                        -Click right mouse button to bring up the menu,
                         use left mouse button to choose.
                                Setting - As is.
                                Size    - Change Appearance!!!
                                Exit    - Exit.

                         -Setting
                                Hour, Min, Sec
                                        Choose hour, min, and sec.
                                Text
                                        Type in Text (Max around 100char)
                                        to be displayed at time up.
                                Beep
                                        Check this if you want sound at
                                        last seconds
                                Win95 Color
                                        If you have windows 95, check this
                                        and get neat color (blue?). You have
                                        to restart the program.
                                Save
                                        Save window position, size, hour,
                                        min, etc, as default.
                                Ok
                                        Accept the value.
                                Cancel
                                        Cancel.

                        -Double click left mouse button to toggle
                         between run/pause timer.

                        I think that's about it.

                Usage:
                        Make noodles, timer so you don't go too deep
                        into the dial-up networking, or so you don't work
                        too much with same amount of payment, etc.

                What's been upgraded:
                        Graphics!!!

                            Feb 22-25 1996

                        Compiled using Boarland C++ Version 4.51
                        
                Special Thanks To:
                        All the people who wrote me an e-mail!
                        Corel Draw (for font I used)
                        Microsoft (for providing windows)
                        Boarland (for such a nice Compiler!)
                        and all....

                Afterwords:
                        There was e-mails saying that they liked my
                        WinTimer version 1.0, thanks very much! And
                        they were saying that 9min59sec limit is too
                        low... so, I've decided to create v2.0. I was
                        thinking "Oh, I just have to modify the source
                        code a bit..." but, things wasn't that easy...
                        I lost the source code for version 1.0 :-(
                        So, I had to study windows programming from
                        step 1, from scratch... it was pain. However,
                        that resulted in better-looking graphics and
                        better interface! Well, I hope you'll like this
                        version!!!
