- VERSION
-
- $VER: MyAmigaAppIcon.dopus5 0.500 (21 Jul 1997) Written by Dominique Dutoit
- (eightyfour@hotmail.com).
-
- SYNOPSIS
-
- ARexx script for Directory Opus 5.5 to create an AppIcon named "My Amiga".
-
- And then your Amiga is smarter! Why? This script is based on a feature from the
- MacOS : when you drop an extension, a control panel, or a font on the System
- Folder, the Mac asks you if you want to put the dropped file in the appropriated
- folder.
-
- This script emulates this feature by using DOpus filetypes, and you can
- customize it at wish (which is not the case with MacOS, and sorry Windows' user,
- you must still wait Windoze 2000 to get something like that).
-
- The magic mode - is a way to disable the confirmation requester. Imagine you
- drop a library and a device on the appicon : the library will be copied to LIBS:
- and the device to DEVS: without asking anything to you. Note that the version
- checking of DOpus is activated, so if the dropped file is a different version
- that the previous one, you will be asked to confirm.
-
- BUGS
-
- This script is a prototype, and you must be careful. I can't be responsible of
- any damage caused to your Amiga. Use it at your own risks. Read
- "MyAmigaAppIcon.readme" on how to install the package.

- Send your bug reports and suggestions to eightyfour@hotmail.com.
