- | Startup-Sequence Controller by Greg Cunningham |
- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
-
- Purpose: This program is intended to be executed from your Startup-Sequence
- and will give you the ability to use the mouse to select which
- programs or commands you wish to have executed at that time. (bmd)
-
- Syntax: DO-OP command command "command arg"
-
- The quotes are only needed if there are spaces in a command,
- it must all be on one line, and you must have a space between each command.
-
- Examples of some commands:
-
- Run DO-OP AddMem Read-RTC "Copy Disk.info RAM:" LoadWB BlitzFonts
- "Mount DF2:" "Assign C: VD0:C" "ScreenBlanker 180"
-
- Command that won't work because this is not like Execute:
- If, EndIf, Else, Lab.
-
- Command that won't work because this is a different task:
- CD, EndCLI, Stack.
-
- When the 'Run' is in front of DO-OP, depending on other commands in the
- Startup-Sequence, it's possible to start using your Amiga while DO-OP is
- still running through it's commands, giving you a big advantage over the
- conventional way, and is one of the biggest reasons to use it.
-
- Currently it will accept 39 commands at 39 chars long.
- If you don't use interlace, you can't use over 17 commands or it won't work.
-
- Here's the good part, when it comes up, all commands are highlighted, when
- you click on one, it toggles the selection of it, and won't execute the
- de-selected commands.
-
- When DO-OP comes up, it will start in about 2 seconds if you haven't started
- de-selecting commands.
-
- Selecting "START" will start the commands, and they will un-highlight as they
- are executed. "STOP QUIT" will stop the execution for reselecting or
- de-selecting, or if it's not executing, the program will go away, this is
- good for people who have to hit control-d and don't know where they are.
- sound familiar?....
