  WHAT IS MAGNIFY?
  ________________

  Magnify is a program which magnifies any portion of the desktop, and displays
  it in the client area.  The area of the desktop displayed (in pels) can be
  varied while magnifying.



  STARTING AND STOPPING MAGNIFICATION
  ___________________________________

  Magnification starts when you double click the first mouse button in Magni-
  fy's client area.  Once you start magnifying, you can move the mouse anywhere
  on the desktop, zoom in or out, or double click the first mouse button again
  to stop the magnification.



  ZOOMING IN AND OUT
  __________________

  Zooming in or out is accomplished via the mouse buttons:

  BUTTON 1       Increases the magnification (zooms in)
  BUTTON 2       Decreases the magnification (zooms out)

  Depressing and holding the appropriate mouse button zooms in the direction
  indicated.  Zooming stops when the button is released.






























                                                                              1

  SAVING THE RESULTS
  __________________

  After you have finished magnifying the desktop, you might want to save the
  display for later use.  Double-clicking in the display area writes a copy of
  the unmagnified display region to the file MAGNIFY.BMP, in PM 1.1 color
  format.  You can then use your favorite utilities to display/edit/print the
  resulting bitmap.



  THE STATUS LINE
  _______________

  The status line can be found at the bottom of the client area.  It displays
  the current area of the desktop under magnification (in pels), and if you are
  zooming in or out (or nothing if you are not zooming).
