        Readme for Quotidian Folders 1.2.2.1

      A Hotkey Utility for folders you use every day.


Note: Does not support UNC paths. Only drive letter based paths
are valid. Unfortunately UNC validation by Windows is slow if
the path is not available.  Rather than filtering out invalid
paths I leave them in the list. If validation fails during launch
for any of the folders a "ding" sound is played(only one "ding"
not a ding for each folder error.)  It's better than Windows OS error
dialogs popping up. This also maintains the one to one correspondence
between the ListView contents and the QF list of folders. Manual
deletion is available in the ListView.


Install: None. Unzip to an empty folder. Optionally make a shortcut.

Uninstall: Delete the folder above while the program is not running.

Usage: Run in Tray. Control Right Click the Mouse in Explorer to add
selected folders to the list. The folders will be opened immediately
if Open On Click Tray Menu option is checked.

Control Right Click on the Desktop to pop up the list near the mouse.
Pressing F1 while the list has the focus shows the About MsgBox.

The list is meant for folders you intend to use every day. For a
Recently Opened folder utility, see my FolderCache on hotkeys page.
Use Visit Hotkey Page in Tray Menu.

Thee's also a Donate command that helps me keep my site afloat.

**************  Note  **************

The source code is now included for those who wish to modify
the program's behavior or hotkey, accommoadte multiple monitors,
etc.. I used AutoHotkey_L v1.1.05.06 32 bit Unicode English
Language version of AHK to compile.

**************  Note  **************

I wrote this utility for my own use. You are welcome to use it
at your own risk. It should run on Windows XP or later. I have
only English language versions of Windows for testing. Your
mileage may vary.

I hope you enjoy using Quotidian Folders.
