Description:
-----------------------

 DMEX Menu is a context menu extention which means that you
 have new options if you use a right mouse button click on a
 file or folder in the windows explorer window. There is
 a new submenu called DMEX which has a strawberry to its left side.

 The highlights of the new functions are:

 - Rename and Changing Date of multiple Files at once.
 - Selecting/Deselecting Files by Masks / Wildcards.
 - Creating Subdirectories - only one click away.
 - Open DOS Windows using the current Directory.
 - Expand/Collapse partial tree branches.
 - Substitute Local Directories as Drives (NT only).
 - Creating Hot Paths for simple and extreme fast change to 
   common used Directories - even in standard dialog boxes.
 - Open multiple Explorer Windows Side by Side.
 - Tile all existing Explorer Windows. 
 - Copy Path/Filenames to Clipboard

 The Menu is multilanguage and full User configurable.
 Full install and uninstall support.


-----------------------
Installation:
-----------------------

Note: You should have administrator rights on NT machines.

.To install DMEXMenu unzip the archive to a new directory
.and run the installation program (install.exe).
.Do not use the install feature of an archive utility
.(like Winzip) since the installation might fail then.
Push the 'Install' button to start.

 The program files are copied to your windows directory.
 You can delete the files you extracted from the ZIP file
 after the installation has sucessfully finished.
 If an error occurs while installation carefully read the
 instructions given in the dialog.

 You can uninstall DMEXMenu using the Software Dialog from
 the Control Panel.

Other language users: In case your language was not automatically
 selected correct open the configuration dialog from the new DMEX submenu
 after installation (Right click with your mouse on any file or directory
 in the explorer window. Choose the DMEX submenu and then Configuration.)
 On the "Options" sheet you can choose your language from the language
 combobox. Close the options dialog to save the changes.
 New languages can be added after installation.
 
If you have already DMEX installed before: it happens sometimes that
 the dmexmenu.dll file can't be copied because it is in use. This
 happens only rarely. However in these cases the installation program
 offers the choice to quit the installation and restart windows.
 I recommend to do so if this problem occurs. The installation is
 started again directly after Windows is restarted.
 If you have used the 'install' feature of an archive utility like Winzip
 this option might fail due to deleted installation files!

More information can be found in the manual.

 If you like DMEXMenu or...
 you have any questions, troubles or complains:
 send me an e-mail.
