摘要： New varieties of child window controls are provided as system resources that application programs may exploit. The preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a dynamic link library (DLL) for implementing the new child window controls as part of an operating system. The new child window controls include a header bar control for providing header bars in application programs. The new controls also include a hot key control that allows a user to view and edit hot key combinations. The new controls further include a tab control for establishing tabs that differentiate amongst pages in user interfaces provided by application programs. An image list data type is defined and functions are provided for manipulating the image list data type. Image lists include multiple like-sized images that are stored efficiently in a single bitmap.

摘要： An operating system provides extensions through which application developers may extend the capabilities of a shell of the operating system. For example, application developers may add menu items to context menus for objects that are visible within an integrated system name space. In addition, developers may add property sheet pages for such objects. Application developers also have the option of providing per-instance icons for each instance of an object. Application developers may provide data object extension handlers for customizing data sources on a per-object class basis and may provide drop target extension handlers on a per-object class basis to customize drop target behavior. Developers may additionally provide copy-hook handlers to regulate file system operations on objects. Developers may also extend the functionality provided by the shell of the operating system by adding their own custom name spaces to the integrated system name space. The mechanism provided by the operating system to add such a name space is polymorphic and transparent to users.

摘要翻译： 操作系统提供扩展，通过该扩展，应用程序开发人员可以扩展操作系统的shell的功能。 例如，应用程序开发人员可以向集成系统名称空间中可见的对象的上下文菜单添加菜单项。 此外，开发人员可以添加此类对象的属性表页。 应用程序开发人员还可以选择为对象的每个实例提供每个实例图标。 应用程序开发人员可以提供数据对象扩展处理程序，用于在每个对象类的基础上定制数据源，并可以在每个对象类的基础上提供放置目标扩展处理程序来自定义放置目标行为。 开发人员还可以提供复制钩子处理程序来对对象进行文件系统操作。 开发人员还可以通过将自己的自定义名称空间添加到集成系统名称空间来扩展操作系统的shell提供的功能。 操作系统提供的添加这样的名称空间的机制对用户来说是多态的和透明的。

摘要： Sitemaps are utilized to hold content-related information about hypertext documents stored at a server site. The hypertext documents may be web pages for the World Wide Web portion of the Internet. Each sitemap file may hold a hierarchical index of the web pages that are accessible at the server site. Each sitemap may also hold search results that identify web pages that comply with the search criteria and/or ratings information regarding the content of the web pages at the server site. The sitemaps may also be utilized by web crawler programs to build an index of web pages available at the server site. The sitemap files may be located at a default location of the server site or, alternatively, may be located at a site designated by information held in a specified hypertext document at the server site.

摘要： A taskbar is provided that supplies visual cues, such as buttons, for each application having an active window. These visual cues inform a user of the currently active windows and may be used to display the active windows. The taskbar may also include a start menu button that enables a user to gain access to a menu for launching programs, opening documents and controlling system settings. The taskbar is resizable and may be anchored to different locations on a video display. The taskbar may operate in a mode where it is not obscurable by other windows. The taskbar may also be displayed in a mode where it is not displayed when another window is in a non-minimized state.
