Hi guys. You're welcome, hope my examples inspire you to do the same :). I
think I did get feedback on that patch in IRC, but I can't remember what it
was, and I can't find the IRC log.

All my patch does though is the file creation part. The real PROGMAN opens and
closes Windows 3.1 styled windows of menu items links too, and I think some
apps do need this.

But if there is interest, give me a few days, maybe I can resend that patch.
