Under a multitasking operating system (for example MagiC, MultiTOS,
Geneva etc) BubbleGEM can be placed in the auto start folder where it
will be automatically started as a GEM program on booting the system.

Under single TOS BubbleGEM can be run as a desk accessory by renaming
BUBBLE.APP to BUBBLE.ACC and copying it to the root directory of your
boot partition, then rebooting.

BubbleGEM-aware programs send a message and pass a character string
to BubbleGEM if the user clicks with the right mouse button on an
icon, button or window area. BubbleGEM then displays the character
string, formatted in a cute speech bubble which remains displayed
until the user moves the mouse pointer to another window area, or
until the user clicks again to burst the bubble.

Optionally bubbles can be displayed by clicking and holding down the
right mouse button; in this case the bubble bursts as soon as the
button is released again.

While a bubble is open two keyboard shortcuts are active:

<CTRL C> : The content of the bubble is copied to the clipboard and
           the bubble remains open.
<CTRL X> : The content of the bubble is copied to the clipboard and
           the bubble is closed.
