About Commander
---------------
One of the drawbacks of many programs is the lack of a customizable
user interface. Functions, such as ARexx scripting and plug-ins, often
have to be started via file requesters or multi-level menus. This
approach can slow down your workflow - and often hinder your creative
energy.

ImageFX, for example, lacks a customizable (or updated) command
interface. When new modules/hooks scripts are added to the program
(home-made, pd, shareware, or commerical) you're required to select
those functions through a file requester or other means. This can slow
down the creative process. Commander is the solution to that problem.

Features
--------
- Can control any program that has an ARexx command set. However, it is
  ONLY available for: ImageFX and there are no plans to develop this
  product further. See ImageFX special features below.

- Commander is currently available for: ImageFX. See special features
  below.

- Extensive customization allows the user to design multiple
  interfaces for all kinds of different approaches to working.
  Just about everything is customizable, including: layout, fonts,
  gadgets, colors, images, etc.

- Openable on any public screen. Can be run multiple times on the same
  screen and/or on different screens, each with a different or same GUI.

- Can control more than one application from one GUI.

- GUIs are designed external to the main program. This minimizes memory
  requirements and increases the interface speed.

- Includes useful examples and tutorials to get you started. Example
  files can be modified to meet your needs, or new interfaces can be
  created.

ImageFX Features
----------------
- Works with any version of ImageFX under WB2.x or higher.

- Full control of ImageFX via it's ARexx command set. Now you can have
  immediate access to all those extra hooks and effects that aren't part
  of the standard ImageFX GUI.

- Commander can start automatically when ImageFX starts. Quitting
  Commander can also quit ImageFX.

- Can be run multiple times on different screens, for multiple
  simultaneous iterations of ImageFX.


What Will Commander Do?
-----------------------
Commander allows you to customize your own GUI for supported
applications, giving you the ability to directly access your favourite
ARexx commands, scripts, and plug-ins in a way that works best for you.

If you use a large screen (1280x1024) you may wish to have numerous
independently movable panels of grouped commands. If you use a smaller
display (640x400) you may prefer to have a page flipping type
interface. Or you may want to have multiple configurations for
different kinds of workflow. Commander can do it all.

What Won't Commander Do?
------------------------
Commander won't help you to be creative, but it will help your creative
flow by avoiding the hinderance of a cumbersome GUI.

Requirements
------------
- WB 2.x+
- Text editor
- A supported application (see above)
