Man I didn't think any one still played this old game.
I'll be playing SE4 for years to come.

SE5 just doesn't excite me.

But at least it's 3D!!!!!!

OK, I've actually used it now. SJ, this program is truly brilliant. If you didn't already have my eternal gratitude for your various outstanding contributions to the game and community over the years, you definitely have it now.

*dogscoff awards S_J a "community service medal", hoping no-one notices its made from a beer-bottle cap.

WindowedSE4 is now WIKIed. Includes a feature list, usage instructions and links.

Couldn't find a better place to link to it from than "Spreadsheets (SEIV)" so if anyone has any better ideas, you know what to do.

SJ, this is wonderful!!! Absolutely amazing but there is one issue. If you are running multiple monitors it only shows a small portion of SE4. That small portion can be moved but you can't see the system window or the command bar.

Hmm... SE4 normally does not blot out the second monitor with the black, right?
SE4 just centers on the first monitor, rather than being in the center of the desktop, and that is probably what is throwing it off.
