NIFTY helps new and casual PC users to create personalized menus to run
programs, copy, or read files, and do other computer tasks at the touch
of a key.  It even offers password protection to submenus.

Memory-resident, NIFTY can be called up from DOS or popped-up by
pressing a hotkey.  When called, a help life jacket splashes onto the
screen ready to save the new PC user faced with a formidable array of
programs and a flat learning curve.

You can make easy-to-use menus that allow novices to quickly perform
complicated computing tasks with little or no training.  On-screen help
files can be inserted to guide even the "first day" user through any
computerized office operation.  Passwords and security levels are
available to control access to submenus.

Automatic program scheduling is another useful feature; you can set
timers to cue and begin processing long or slow sorting and processing
programs for the dead of night or other slow times.
