short: A 1-line/row virtgrp ExchangeClone(MUI) type: util/cdity author: Thomas Igracki version: 37.29 uploader: T.Igracki@gmx.de This program controls all commodities in your system. It is an alternative for the normal Exchange and uses the MagicUserInterface by Stefan Stuntz. The difference between C='s (or AT's) Exchange and CxBar is that CxBar displays the commodities as buttons (cycles) in a horizontical or vertical (switchable!), one-line (bar) or one-row virtual group. Every button has a help-bubble which shows the title and the description of the commodity and informs you if it has a window which can be shown and hidden ("GUI: YES" or "GUI: NO"). Also you can turn on a size-gadget to size the window and a drag- gadget to change the window's position. The size-gadget appears on the right or bottom and the drag-gadget on the left or top. You can also have the window the normal/intuition windowborder incl. all bordergadgets. CxBar has also some arexx commands to control the commodities via arexx and is localizied! It has also a rexx menu where you can start rexx-scripts direct from CxBar! The help-bubble of CxBar looks like this: _____________________________________ / \ | CxBar v37.29 (15.02.98) by T.
