Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     icon
 
     A minimized window.
 
     An icon looks like this:
 
            ┌─────┐
            │  1  │
            └─────┘
          filename.ext
 
     When an icon has the focus:
 
        ■ The filename is inverted, and the icon casts a shadow.
        ■ Most editing commands are disabled.
 
     To move the active icon:
 
       ■  Press the UP, DOWN, LEFT, and RIGHT ARROW keys.
 
     To restore the minimized window to its normal size:
 
       ■  Double-click the icon.
       ■  Choose Restore from the Window menu.
       ■  Press ENTER when the icon has the focus.
 
     To arrange all icons on the desktop:
 
       ■  Execute Meta Arg Arrangewindow («meta» «arg» «arrangewindow»).
