DESCRIPTION:
DecoMenu lets you decorate the Start menu with a personalized bitmap that 
replaces the six or seven icons in the main section of the Start menu, from 
"Programs" down to "Run". Using DecoMenu, you can put the company logo on all 
company computers, or brand your home computer with a bitmap representing your 
favorite sport, pet, or hobby.

REVISION HISTORY:
Initial release.

INSTALLATION:
DecoMenu is supplied as a self-contained INSTALL program. Run this program to 
install DecoMenu in the directory of your choice. The install program will add 
DecoMenu, its help file, and an uninstall utility to your Start menu. For 
details on program operation, refer to the program's online help file.
