GEOS.INI [ui features]

Okay, I finally got onto AOL for the ten hour trial -with the help of
another's modem. In AOL I did a file search using the keywords: GEOS,INI

I got files: TWEAKER.EXE, GEOS2000.ZIP and INI-edit? or something like that.
I post each of these as soon as I can get them exported, and find the time.
For now let this suffice those of you hungering for ui-ini settings.

PLEASE, don't email me for more info than this. Until I get the complete
files posted, please be patient. Also, I don't understand everything
here, so if you have questions about this, post them to the whole group

thanks
Dave Twede
