				BEFORE LIGHT
			    GRAPHIC SCREEN SAVERS
			
			     FREE BONUS PROGRAMS


BEFORE LIGHT contains four free bonus programs which are installed in the
"Before Light" screen savers program group during program setup.  In fact,
these are the only programs that you can access directly from the Windows 
Program Manager.  These programs include a screen saver switch and three
independent screen savers for Windows 3.0 or Windows 3.1.  

Your BEFORE LIGHT screen savers are installed directly into Microsoft Windows 
and are activated with the Control Panel\Desktop configuration window.  They 
cannot be selected from Program Manager.



		    SCREEN SAVER SWITCH - BONUS UTILITY

Turn your Windows 3.1 screen saver on or off whenever you wish!

There will be times when you want to disable your Windows 3.1 screen saver.
For example, if you are downloading a large file with your modem or printing
a large document, you might want to view the progress without interruption. 
In this case, you will want to turn off the active Windows 3.1 screen saver.

Enabling and disabling a Windows 3.1 screen saver in the traditional manner
requires that you click on the Windows Control Panel icon.  Then click on
the Desktop icon.  Then select the "None" item in the screen saver listbox.

Our "Screen Saver Switch" utility will save you the chore of opening and
closing all of the Windows and it works like a charm!  Just double-click 
your mouse on the program icon and select "disable" from the popup menu.
Select "enable" when you want to reactivate the screen saver.



		       THREE WINDOWS 3.0+ SCREEN SAVERS

Three additional screen savers also appear in the "Graphic Screen Savers" 
program group.  These screen savers run independently in Windows 3.0 or 
Windows 3.1.  If you are using Windows 3.1 screen savers, remember to 
disable your current Windows 3.1 screen saver before you run the "American",
"Canadian" or "Waterbug" screen savers from Program Manager.



			  ADDITIONAL INFORMATION


SCREEN SAVER SWITCH     A small utility that you can use to turn your
			Windows 3.1 screen saver off or on at any time.
			
			To run this program, double click your mouse on
			the "saver is off" icon.  
			
			If a Windows 3.1 screen saver is not active, the 
			program will not run.  Instead, it will issue a 
			short warning message and terminate.

			If a Windows 3.1 screen saver is active, the
			program will appear as an icon at the bottom of
			your screen.  The icon will inform you of the
			current status of your Windows 3.1 screen saver
			with either a "saver is off" or a "saver is on" 
			message.
			
			To change the status of your Windows 3.1 screen
			saver, click your mouse on the Screen Saver
			Switch icon.  A popup menu will appear which
			contains the following items:


			    Move           :  move the program icon to
					      a new location
				      
			    Close          :  cancel Screen Saver Switch

			    Switch to      :  switch to another Windows
					      application

			    Enable/Disable :  turn the screen saver on 
					      or off

			    About          :  program description

			    Blank now      :  remove menu from screen

			    Always on top  :  the Screen Saver Switch
					      icon will be visible at
					      all times



WINDOWS 3.0+ SAVERS     Although the Before Light screen savers are
			designed for Microsoft Windows 3.1, we know that 
			some Windows 3.0 holdouts ordered our program
			by mistake.  As a consolation, we've added three
			screen savers that will run in both Windows 3.0 
			and Windows 3.1.

			A REMINDER FOR WINDOWS 3.1 USERS:  Make sure
			that your Windows 3.1 screen saver is inactive
			before you run the bonus screen savers.  Use
			the Screen Saver Switch program or Windows
			Control Panel\Desktop editor (select "None") to
			deactivate the screen saver.  Otherwise, you
			will be running two screen savers at the same
			time which will probably cause a conflict.

			To activate any of the bonus screen savers,
			double-click your mouse on its icon.  When the
			icon reappears at the bottom of your screen,
			click it again to access the screen saver menu.
			View, set the time delay or close the screen
			saver from this menu.
