1. Introduction.

Automation Commander (AC) is a multipurpose scheduling utility, designed 
to perform a great amount of repetitive routine tasks automatically. 
The aim of this program is to increase user's productivity and avoid 
loss of significant information on PC-based Win32 systems.  

AC has a very flexible easy-to-understand structured timetable. 
Logical structure of AC operating is based on events and tasks. 
When Event raises up, a Job, which represents a set of Tasks is 
performed. Events can be configured with a great variety of periodicity's 
with period time from a second to years. Also events could be scheduled 
(and re-scheduled) for one-time or user-request execution.  

Any Job or Task can be added to popup menu of tray icon in order to execute 
it just by two mouse clicks.   

No programming experience is required to create and configure Jobs and 
Tasks - the intuitive interface of wizards, based on unique progressive 
dialogs technology, provides their easy "step-by-step" creation.
