0. What Is Purpose of StartupMgr
**************************************

	Startup programs are those applications that automatically start each time a computer is started. StartupMgr is a small utility to help you managing startup 
programs with your computer. You can easily remove a program out of startup or add 
a new startup program with StartupMgr. 

1. System Requirement
**************************************

	StartupMgr is a Win32 program. It needs Windows 95/98/Me/Nt4.0 or higher to run.

2. Installation and Uninstallation
**************************************

	No special installation is required for using StartupMgr. What is needed is to 
unzip wlsmg101.zip into a directory which you specify. It will end up with 2 files 
released in the directory.
	readme.txt ( the file you are reading )
	StartupMgr.exe
Now just run StartupMgr.exe to start the application.

	To remove the program from your computer, simply delete above 2 files. 

	A recommended usage is to put StartupMgr.exe into windows system directory (e.g. 
C:\Winnt for Windows NT or C:\Windows for Windows 95/98). This way makes the program can 
be run in Windows <run> box ( Start Menu->Run) or in a DOS Command Window by just typing 
the program name "StartupMgr".

3. How to Use StartupMgr
**************************************

Generally speaking, Windows records the startup programs  in one of following places : 

(1) Registry for all users : The startup programs of this category will run when any user logs into computer.
(2) Registry for a specific user: The program will run only when a certain user logs on.
(3) Startup folder for all users : Behavious of the program is the same as (1).
(4) Startup folder for a specific user: Same as (2).

Startup Manager can manipulate categories (1) and (3), also included is categories (2) and (4) for current user who launch StartupMgr. On lower part of the main window, all startup programs currently accesible are listed. For each program, its recorded name, domain 
(for which the startup setting is effective), place (where the startup setting is saved), and the full command line (which lauches the program) are shown. 

You can easily add a program to any one of categories or remove it from the category.
** Add a startup program ***********
	To add a startup program, follow steps below.
	(1) Set domain for which the startup setting is effective: There are 2 options
 	    available,one is for all users , the other is for current user only. The former
	    will get the program running up when any user of the computer logs on, the
	    latter, however, will run the program only when the current user ( yourself) 
	    logs on.
	(2) Set place where the startup setting is going : You may choose to record the 
	    setting in Windows Registry or in Shell Folder ( i.e. startup folder which 
	    is located in file system of the computer). 
	(3) Set program you want it to be startup running. Firstly, you need specify path of 
	    the excutable file. You may use <Find> button to bring up a browser to pick up
	    the path.

	    Next, if there should be any arguments when launching the program, you need 
	    specify them in Command Arguments field. 

	    For example, if the program should be launched by command line 
		c:\program files\edit\myeditprogram.exe mytextfile.txt
	    you should input c:\program files\edit\myeditprogram.exe into field of path, and
	    mytextfile.txt into field of Command Arguments.
	(4) Now click <OK> button to finish.

** Remove a startup program **********
	In startup program list, find out the program you want to remove from startup
	running, then click the name of the setting of the program to highlight the item.
	Next simply click <Delete> to remove the program from startup running.

	WARNING : AS LONG AS A STARTUP PROGRAM IS DELETED. YOU CAN NOT GET THE ACTION 
	UNDONE. IF YOU DELETE BY MISTAKE, YOU HAVE TO ADD IT BACK MANUALLY. SO BEFORE DOING
	DELETION, DOUBLE CHECK AND MAKE SURE THE HIGHLIGHTED PROGRAM IS REALLY WHAT YOU WANT 
	TO REMOVE.
