This simple but useful little programm has it's only job in bringing up an
(Arp)Filerequester and writing the result to an environment-variable. It
can be made resident and has to be called from CLI or shell with
Batchrequester <variable> <titel> <filename>
where
<variable> is the name of the variable. You have to type the whole path
(e.g. env:myvar) because this has the advantage that you also can write to
other files than those in the env: assignment.
<titel> is simple the string written in the title-bar of the requester.
With <Filenamen> you can predefine a complete filename (including path)
wich is written to the string-gadgets and used if no other selction is made
or the user CANCELed the requester. If you only want to predifine a
directory and no file you have to add a "/" at the end.
e.g.:
Batchrequester Env:Fridolin Hallihallo df1:Textfiles/
opens a requester, predefines "df1:textfiles" and writes the result to an
variable called Fridolin.
Later on this can be used for example in a batch-file, e.g:
Type $Fridolin
The message in the title-bar is "Hallihallo".
Ok, thats all.
