----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: What is it ?

A: This nice hack brings the active window on a public screen
   in front of all other windows. Just click on that cool icon.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Another CTF ? You love redundancy in Amiga's software pool, don't you ?

A1: Yes, but this one is special. It's short, it's NO commodity and it's
    special purpose is to use it with sunmouse (qmouse i.e.). In sunmouse
    mode you activate a window by placing the pointer on it. Then, after
    a delay, the window will - bang! - face you in it's full size.
    If you are sunmouse user, please try it. I think it's very usefull !
A2: Yes. Why not ? Choose the one YOU like ! If my hack isn't your choice,
    kick it, erase it and tell everybody that you hate it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: What delay time ?

A: Adjust it with the tooltype DELAY (DELAY=100 i.e. (two secs.)).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Cooool ! Is it GNU ? must I set the stack to 1MB ?

A: No, no. It is Freeware. I hold the copyright. Distribute it as you
   like, but nobody may earn money of it, with two exceptions: The
   Distribution on Aminet CD or Fish is allowed. Others must ask for
   my permission. Distribute it only with this file intact.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: You placed the source within the archive. Why ?

A: Learn from it (if you need) and write programs yourself. Aaaand: Send
   them to me :)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: May I send flames to you, telling you this program is a piece of crap ?

A: Not in german language. I would understand it and it would hurt me badly.
   No problemo in english since I don't understand one word (this text was
   written with an english scool book in my left hand). But please make it
   short and don't mess up my mailbox !
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Then, may I send you comments and bug reports ?

A: You are welcome. But place the keyword 'harmless' in the subject field
   of your mail to let me know if it is worth to translate.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: May I ask you to explain me the code ?

A: No way. If you have not the slightest clue whats going on there, consult
   the KRM's, or, even better, do a delete #?.c in your source path.
   The code couldn't be simpler.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: I want to know if this program takes much cpu-time. What should I do ?

A: Get CPULoad from Aminet (It's full of bugs, but it seems to be harmless).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Do you know that you are talking to yourself ?

A: Only on sleepy sundays. I hope that many people would have asked the same
   questions. Also, talking to themself is the object of many FAQ writers,
   i.e. Q: can I do X11 on NetBSD ? A: Yes you can do X11 on NetBSD.
