What is FileMaster?
----------------------
FileMaster was written to provide functionality not available in similar file
managers.  FileMaster not only provides support for basic file system 
operations, but it extends them with numerous configuration options.

FileMaster was written and designed to be used by people who need advanced 
file management applications.

What options does really FileMaster give to me?
-------------------------------------------
 Huge amount of options, allowing you to change many behaviors of FileMaster
- Full UNICODE support. Yes! You can write in Polish, Japanese, Turkish, or
  English languages. You will see all the national characters. You will see
  file and folder names properly thanks to Unicode characters!
- File based operation runs in their own threads in order to get the most from
  32bit Windows!
- Language change support during run time. Select from English or Polish
  anytime you need. 
- Future versions will come with more languages.
- Use of advanced and new features of new Windows! Transparent windows, etc.
- OpenGL controls
- File System Watching. FileMaster is capable of tracking file system changes,
  similar to Windows Explorer.
- Tabs make file system operations easier. You can manage tabs, associate them
  with one folder, making drive browsing a pleasure. Tabs can have file lists,
  quick views, temporary folders, etc.

FileMaster was especially designed for platform : Microsoft Windows XP

Not all features are available on all platforms. You can see in the following

Remember, that FileMaster options are different for each Windows version.
FileMaster can be built for WindowsME, can be run on Windows2000, but will not
provide features available on Windows2000/WindowsME systems.


Requirements:
--------------
* One of Microsoft Windows Version:
	Windows 98
	Windows ME
	Windows NT 4.0 ServicePack 3
	Windows NT 2000
	Windows NT XP
* 64 Megabytes allowing to run system and FileMaster without large paging.
  Windows NT2000/XP may need 128 Megabytes. FileMaster itself requires about 5
  megabytes of memory, and only 1,5 physical.
* FileMaster may need a good graphical card in order to properly display 
  OpenGL controls in dialogs at reasonable speed.
* FileMaster was compiled to run on Pentium II processors. It will run on
  slower machines, but its speed will be noticeably slower.
* FileMaster requires at least IE 5.0 installed. It is also highly recommended 
  that you install Active Desktop. 
* FileMaster now requires OleAcc.dll. It is required to install additional
  Windows components for people with disabilities (it is a part of Windows
  installation). OleAcc.dll is automatically installed along with Windows 2000
  and Windows XP

NOTE: Windows 98 and Windows ME may have problems running OpenGL controls. 
NOTE: We highly recommend Windows XP or Windows 2000 operating systems for FileMaster
