Subject: StartThing 1.0.5 - simple and powerful
Objective Software announces the maintenance release of StartThing 1.0.5.
* Version 1.0.5 (98/01/31)
- Added a checkbox that activates or deactivates the hot spot corner.
- The Launcher Mode now deactivates the standard screen-saver Gestalt
selectors 'SAVR'/'SAVC' for running both StartThing and a screen-saver such
as AfterDark.
StartThing is a very cool, simple and powerful screen-saver. Install the
control panel, choose the delay before the saver starts up at idle time and
the application to launch. That's it!
The application to launch can be a Macromedia Director Projector, a
SuperCard project, a Quark-Immedia Presentation, an Applet or any other
application...
Tips:
- You can easily create your own screen saver by choosing the "QuickShow"
application (by David Howel) as the startup application. QuickShow is a
freeware utility that shows all pictures, jpeg, QuickTime movies, etc. from
a folder.
- There are also a lot of tools to convert a QuickTime movie into an
application.

A site license of StartThing... what for?
If you intend to use StartThing on a single computer, the site license is not
for you: you only need to get a $10 single-user license.
