Subject: HandyMan 2.0.6
HandyMan is a complete and easily configurable application dock and launcher
that sits in the Control Strip
It is designed to allow quick and easy access to applications, Control
Panels, Desk Accessories, Folders and other documents stored on your
Macintosh, without having to navigate through several ÒFinder WindowsÓ or
through a multi-layered, hierarchical Apple menu.
It works by clicking on icons installed in the Control Strip window, or
dropping documents onto them. This approach is much handier than aliases
that are on the desktop because the Control Strip window that contain the
icons can never be covered by other windows. HandyMan also requires a lot
less desktop space than the same number of icons on the desktop.
