After I released ProgramMenu, I received a lot of messages asking me if ProgramMenu could be used as a replacement for the Start Menu on Pocket PCs. They requested a function to raise the ProgramMenu when the left part of the navigation bar is tapped. There were also requests for a program that would switch to the "Today" page.
I began work on adding the ability to "take over" the Start Menu with what is now "ProgramMenu Toys". ProgramMenu Toys is a set of programs, which assist ProgramMenu in replacing the Start Menu. ProgramMenu Toys consists of 3 programs, Start, Suspend, and Today. For the 3 programs, you can easily imagine what they do by their names.
The initial version of ProgramMenu Toys (Ver 1.0) contained another program called "Menu Launcher" which created a small window that resided in the left part of the navigation bar to raise ProgramMenu. However, ProgramMenu Toys 1.1 no longer provides the program since ProgramMenu itself provides the function now.
ProgramMenu Toys is a freeware. Licensing conditions can be found in a distributed file. Read the conditions before using ProgramMenu Toys.
