MultiDesk

MultiDesk is an extension package for OS/2, that enables multiple desktops and users, with individual configurations.

It takes a slightly different approach than other similar software products, that may make it a little less convenient to use, but a LOT more powerful.



Main features are:
 * Multiple desktops, completely separate from each other;
 * ...this means even separate class list: you can have different desktop enhancers for different users;
 * Multiple users, each with his own desktop;
 * Customizable environment, on a user-per-user basis;
 * Customizable pre/post login scripts;
 * Customizable shell: the user is NOT forced to use the WPS;
 * Customizable resolution: each user can have a different video resolution;
 * WarpCenter management (i.e. different WarpCenters for different users);
 * Configurable default user;
 * Configurable "root" (administrator) user;
 * Configurable security settings;
 * Locking of files to prevent users from reading/writing (e.g. configuration and password files are automatically locked).
 * A full-featured user-management program, that can be used to:
 * Create/delete users;
 * Create/delete desktops;
 * Customize desktops;
 * Copy settings from one desktop to another;



Requirements

 * You need WarpIN to install MultiDesk.
