Setup your own homepage
You can start LIKSE with the search screen, a blank page, or a homepage of your choice.
To setup your homepage, simply goto Options|Home Page. Select the option - 'Start LIKSE with Home Page', and
assign the HTML file you want to use as your homepage to the 'Home Page Location' field.
LIKSE can also automatically re-load your homepage when there is no user activity (like a screen saver). To use this feature, please check the 'Load Home Page after..' box, then set the period of idle time (in seconds) LIKSE will wait before re-loading the homepage.
Setup LIKSE Window
If LIKSE's Window is too small for you, it can be resized. You can also position the Window anywhere on your screen, or set it
to the maximum Window size. After you make those changes you can choose [Save Options] from the "Options" menu.
Config LIKSE's Directory Buttons
LIKSE allows you to setup your own directory buttons - i.e., you can change the captions on buttons, and assign your own files to those buttons. To setup directory buttons, click on the ICON beside the rightmost directory button.

To selectively enable your menu options, please remove the above line, and then add the following lines under [ADVANCE] section to enable each menu item:
Setup Kiosk Mode / Full Screen Window
Setup a list of search paths
The advantage of using this feature is that you can put files into different directories according to their categories, and user may perform search only within the directory they are interested, which improves the search speed.
You may setup this list via Options | Path List.
If you want to limit the search only to the list setup by you, you can mark 'Limit to Directory' box read only. You do this by goto Options | Search Engine Defaults
Config LIKSE to lauch default browser and email client
About LIKSE's search results
There are two check boxs which let you set the path of the temporary file base on environment settings:
You can also define the HTML code which is used as the header of search results. Within the
HTML code, you can use the variable %exedir% to refer to the directory where LIKSE
is running from.
Some very old VGA card drivers have problems when running in 256 color mode. If you are not able to run LIKSE, please try to switch you VGA driver to use some other color mode (true color / 16 color), or setup Windows to use one of the standard VGA driver, this will normally solve the problem. If you have any other question, please feel free to email us.

%exedriver%\IMAGE\banner.GIF -> E:\IMAGE\banner.gif
