What'thatallabout?
-----------------------
That' eazy :) Some weeks ago I started learning C with the help
of the SAS-C compiler. Fortunately there exist a lot of archives
with sources :) One of them is the 'cmanual' (which wasn't that
helpful btw...). Unfortunately it has some very old'n'ugly icons
in it. I had to exchange them all by hand. A boring and stupid
thing ;( For this was not the first time I did work like that to
keep my HD free of such icons I decided to do smth. against it.
The result is 'repicon'. It replaces all images of icons of a
specified type which match to a certain pattern by a user-defined
iconimage. Well, I must admit - that's nothing exciting at all.
But it is my first tool and it WORKS! (uahhh!) and did not crash
at all (even during development :))
---------------------------------
Buthowdoesthatstrangethingwork?
---------------------------------
Seems to be eazy too :) The argument-template looks like this
REPICON [DIR/K] ICONTYPE/A [DEFICON/K] [MATCHICON/K] [DEEP/S]
DIR : Directory from which repicon starts its work.
ICONTYPE : DRAWER|TOOL|PROJECT|GARBAGE|DEVICE|KICK|DISK
Type of the icons which are to be replaced. You cannot specify
more than one type on each call of repicon. Surely it would be of
advantage to specify actions on more than one icontype, but I'll
leave this goodie to a future (MUI-)GUI-Version
DEFICON : (default-) icon, from which the images are to be taken to
replace the old ones. Default is envarc:sys/def_icontype.
MATCHICON: This icon is used to match the found ones. If the images
are the same the icon will be replaced by deficon. If not,
it will be left. This is not a matchstring! Only the images
will be matched!
DEEP: If this option is specified, repicon will work recursivly
starting from DIR/K.
Examples???
REPICON DIR=SYS: ICONTYPE=DRAWER DEFICON=ICONARC:newdrawer.info MATCHICON=ENVARC:SYS/def_drawer.info
replaces all drawer-icons in SYS: that matches with envarc:sys/def_drawer.info
with the iconimages in ICONARC:newdrawer.info.
REPICON DIR=TOOLS: ICONTYPE=TOOL DEFICON=ICONARC:tool.info DEEP
ersetzt vom Verzeichnis TOOLS: ausgehend rekursiv alle Tool-Icons durch ICONARC:tool.info
replaces all tool-icons in TOOLS: recursivly with iconarc:tool.info
got it? ;)
If any error occurs on interpreting the arguments or if repicon
is launched from the WB, repicon starts some kind of
requester-dialog that replaces the arguments on cli.

small history:
1.0 04.10.96 very first official release :)
1.1 10.10.96 error with missing DIR-argument found (argl! had a progdir:
instead of the current dir lock...)
added the requester-dialog since the gui is not ready yet.
