 * Description:
---------------

The URL Grank plugin retrieves and displays the Google PageRank™ of an Internet
shortcut of a URL file by means of the GoogRankCmd utility from Nir Sofer.

Few more properties of the URL file can be displayed in custom columns:
 o URL: address location of the web page
 o WorkingDirectory: working directory that the URL file uses
 o IconIndex: icon index within the icon library
 o IconFile: path of the icon library file
 o Modified: URL modified date and time
 o ShowCommand: Normal, Maximized or Minimized
 o HotKey: shortcut key to automatically launch the Internet shortcut

Settings of the [URL Grank Settings] section of the urlgrank.ini are the web
proxy server (if no direct Internet connection is available) and the
GoogRankCmd command timeout value.


 * Example:
