Introduction
------------
Unmask is small commodity which hides all windows on the desktop with one
keypress and brings them back with another keypress.

Requirements
------------
- MorphOS
- hotkeystring.mcc V12.1 (http://sourceforge.net/projects/hotkeystring)

Installation
------------
Simply copy unmask to some place you like and start it from there.

Usage
-----
The default setup is:
F12 to hide all windows on the frontmost screen.
F11 to hide all windows but the active window on the frontmost screen.
F10 to hide all windows but the active window and all windows that belong
    to the same application on the frontmost screen.

The hotkeys are configurable via the commodities context which can be
opened with 'Show Interface' of Exchange.

Note: Backdrop windows can't be hidden.

Note2: It seems F-Keys are not working properly with MorphOS release
       1.4.x. You will need an updated commodities.library to have working
       F-Keys for unmask.
