Announcing the release of STSTray 1.0!
--------------------------------------

STSTray is a solution that was designed with Revolution and MetaCard in mind
(although it can be used with any application). At its simplest, it is an
application that allows you to display an icon in the Windows system tray.
But that's not all that it is able to do! Using its MetaTalk/Transcript-like
scripting language it can also:

     - Display a menu when the user clicks on the icon, and take actions
when the user selects an item from the menu, including communicating back to
MetaCard/Revolution what the user selected

     - Display a tooltip when the mouse passes over the icon

     - Display a notification balloon under Windows XP

     - Flash the icon at a user-settable time interval

     - Switch back and forth between two icons at a user-settable time
interval

     - Display an "answer" dialog box with different settings, and capture
the selection made by the user to pass back to MetaCard/Revolution

     - Write a file to disk

     - Launch a program

     - Icons can be GIFs, JPEGs, or ICO files, and will automatically scale
to fit the system tray
