NOTE: This software is for Newton 2.0 Newtons ONLY. 

* What's it do?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
	Freeze Utilities allow you to take advantage of the built in freezing
option on the Newton, as well as providing a few enhancments.

* What's in this archive?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
	There is one Newton software packages and two text files in
this archive. They are:
	* FrzUtils.txt	document you're now reading. 'Nuff said.
	* FrzUtils.pkg	software package you'll install on your Newton.
	* SAStuff.txt	A list of all Stand Alone products.

* Installing Freeze Utilities
---------------------------------------------------------------------
	First off, you must get the Freeze Utilities software package onto your
Newton. You can do this using the Newton Connection Utility (for Mac or
Windows), the Newton Package Downloader, or the Newton Backup
Utility. See the documentaion with each of these for more
information on installing packages with them.

* Using Freeze Utilities
---------------------------------------------------------------------
	Freeze Utilities adds an item to your preferences which allows you to
configure your Newton's Freezing options.

The first checkbox ("Allow Package Freezing") turns on and off the
ability to freeze icons directly in the Extras Drawer. If it is
checked, then after selecting an item in the Extras Drawer, you can tap
on the action button (the small envelope) and popup the action menu.
To freeze a package, simply select Freeze from the menu.

If you have the "Keep package icons when freezing" option checked in
the Freeze Utilities prefs, then Frozen packages will be indicated by
grayed-out icons with a small snowflake. If this option is not checked,
then all frozen packages will have a large snowflake as the icon.

Normally when you tap on a frozen package,. the system will thaw it.
However, if you select "Launch frozen packages when tapped", then
packages will first be thawed, and then launched. In addition, if you
check the "Refreeze packages after quitting" box, then after you quit
the application, the system will automatically refreeze if for you.

Freeze Utils also adds two additional options to the Action button in the Extras Drawer. These are:
	
	Thaw 	This will un-freeze (or Thaw) any selected icons, without launching them.
	
	Package Info	This will bring up a screen with information about a single selected icon.
	

* Registering Freeze Utilities
---------------------------------------------------------------------
	Freeze Utilities is free! It's stuff we think should be included 
in the OS of the Newton, so we want to make sure everybody gets it.
