	Would someone with access to a Windows 3.11 please try out New
Menus for Windows?  It'll work with Windows 95 and Windows NT, but it
doesn't work well.  (Problems with icons, etc.)  This program is a VERY
nice user interface to Windows.  It makes it very "unix like."  

	It has the concept of the global menu built into it.  You'll have
to try it to see.  The URL is:

	http://bbs.argo.net.au/$webfile.send.N9-ASP./NMFW146.ZIP

	Careful.  The last time it was updated with some time in '95.  :^)
