Description:
AppSwitcher Control is a handy application which allows you to customize
the appearance and behavior of the Application Switcher in Mac OS 8.5.
AppSwitcher Control is free.

Requirements:
AppSwitcher Control requires a PowerPC Macintosh running Mac OS 8.5.

Version History:
v1.0 1998-09-17
- Initial Release. My first Macintosh application ever.

v1.1 1998-09-21
- Revised layout of options using more visual elements. Eliminated popup menus.
- Added miniature representation of the screen which allows you to visually
set position, orientation, and grow direction, all at once.
- Added ability to edit name width. Click the arrows to increment or
decrement by 10 pixels. Shift-click to increment or decrement by 1 pixel.
- Added ability to order by name or launch order, normal or reverse.
- AppSwitcher Control now reads the Application Switcher's settings only
the first time you launch it. When you quit AppSwitcher Control, it saves
your settings to its own preferences file. From then on, it reads settings
from its preferences file at launch. This results in much faster launch
times.
- AppSwitcher Control now does a better job of loading the existing settings.
- AppSwitcher Control now remembers which tab was frontmost when you last
used the application.
- Added balloon help for just about everything.
- General cleanup of the internal workings of the app.
