Winstep Xtreme:
Transforms your desktop
Lets you have a desktop that becomes the envy
of whoever looks at it... everybody loves a pretty face!
Organizes your Applications
and Reduces Desktop Clutter
Winstep Xtreme allows you to eliminate the
huge clutter from your desktop and quickly organize the applications and
documents you use more frequently.
Enhances your productivity
Puts the things you need the most at your
fingertips, allowing you to work better and faster. Your documents and
applications are always just one or two clicks away.
Simplifies every aspect of your daily work
Instead of a generalist User Interface that
compromises in order to accommodate millions of users, with Xtreme you
can customize the Interface so it suits you, and the way you
work.
It's FUN to use!
The more you use Winstep Xtreme, the more
you'll go 'Wow, this rules!' as you discover all it can do for you.
The Winstep Xtreme suite includes the
following applications:
NeXuS:
NeXuS is the dock system, and is just perfect
for super fast access to your most used applications.
You can have as many docks as you want, and
each can have multiple sub-docks! When not in use, docks can hide behind
your screen edges, taking virtually no screen space.
WorkShelf:
WorkShelf is a tabbed dock, better suited to
complex organizational duties like organizing documents, URLs, movies,
work projects, etc... If a dock is the top of your desk, then Workshelf
is all the drawers below it.
NextSTART:
NextSTART is the menu system - and takes care
of all your task management needs as well.
Menus are great for accessing infrequently
used files and system related commands that aren't easily reachable in
the file system or that have no readily user-recognizable graphic
representation. You can create as many menus as you want, and, with
NextSTART hotspots, you can invoke each of these menus by a super fast
screen edge/corner bump with the mouse pointer.
The task management part of NextSTART allows
you to efficiently organize and manipulate running tasks and windows.
Using nothing but drag & drop, you can re-organize the items in your
taskbar so that all your related documents are together (thus easier to
find) and where you expect them to be, instead of where Windows
decided to put them.
Modules:
Modules, widgets, gadgets, docklets,
desklets, are all different words to describe the same thing:
mini-applications that usually live on your desktop and provide a
staggering amount of information regarding your system, the weather,
etc...
Winstep Xtreme currently includes the following modules: a speaking
Atomic Clock, Recycle Bin, Email Checker, Weather Monitor, CPU, Net and
RAM Meters and the amazing 'fortune cookie' Wanda. New modules are
constantly being added.
Winstep modules can be placed on your
desktop, in docks, in the shelf or even in your taskbar!
Winstep Start Menu Organizer Pro:
The Winstep Start Menu Organizer is an application designed to help you organize and clean your Windows Start Menu.
Over time, as more and more applications get installed, the Start Menu can get so cluttered that you end up spending a lot of time simply trying to find the program you want to run. This is where the Winstep Start Menu Organizer comes in: it allows you to quickly group your Start Menu shortcuts into a specific set of categories (e.g. Utilities, Internet, Office, etc...) thus making finding what you are looking for a lot easier and much, much, faster!
Fontbrowser:
Font Browser, is a bare-bones font browsing utility for Windows.
Modeled after the Font Panel from OPENSTEP, this utility features an easy to use interface and intuitive NeXT style controls. It includes the ability to type your own preview text directly into the preview display and enter your own custom font sizes.
