For starters

Are you one of those poor souls who likes to open a bunch of windows and then gets bored with those stupid colors at the top of the screen? Yeah, thought so. Me too. If you want to spruce up your screen a little than this is the program for you!  Go on, try to start it right now! It's a lot of fun!


Requirements

Japanese MSWindows 3.1 or Japanese Windows95 with more than 256 colors and a recommended CPU that is faster than a 486DX2/66.

(Note, that's what it says... even though it will work on just about any machine... -Jesse)


Method of operation

If it doesn't work quite right when you start it, there are some things you can do to make it look better.

Displaying the setup menu

The setup menu


Displaying the setup menu

Click the right mouse button on the Window Sitter.  The setup menu will then be displayed.


The setup menu

You can set it up using the following options:

Press 'OK' to keep your changes.

Press 'Cancel' if you goofed up and forgot what you had.

Close the program with the 'End' button.

Changing your sitters clothes

Options

Delay drawing mode


You can choose different outfits for your Sitter based on your mood.


Certain characters have different options.  For example, Rei has the option to 'Adhere a bandage'.  See if you can guess what that does.


This isn't really necessary in Windows 3.1, but it is very useful in Windows95, because sometimes your Window Sitter can leave trash behind on the screen.


Important release notes

If you use Windows95, there is a chance that the Window Sitter will leave a little trash behind on your screen. If this happens, please check the "delay drawing mode" check box on the setup menu. This seems to happen most when you are also using Microsoft Plus!  By the way, if you are in 256 color mode and another program tries to change the palette, or you have an especially -busy- background (many crazy colors) there is a chance that that Window Sitter will look pretty funky. If this happens, click on a different window, or just click on the Window Sitter.  However, if the application you are using likes to cycle colors, the only way to un-funkify your Window sitter is by raising the number of colors Windows can handle, or ending the application. :)
