Short: ReqTools 2.2c - the requester toolkit
Type: util/libs
Author: nico@augfl.be (Nico Francois)
reqtools.library is a standard Amiga shared, runtime library. The purpose
of ReqTools is to make it a lot quicker and easier to build standard
requesters into your programs. ReqTools is designed with Commodore's style
guidelines in mind, all requesters have the look-and-feel of AmigaDOS
Release 2.
ReqTools features the following requesters: a query requester, a string
requester, a number requester, a file requester, a font requester, a
palette requester, a volume requester and a screenmode requester.
Also included are RTPatch (1.3) and RexxReqTools (1.2e):
RTPatch is a small program that will re-route functions from most popular
requester libraries to ReqTools. Libraries currently supported are Arp,
Req and Asl. RTPatch will also patch some functions in Intuition to give
you improved system requesters.
RexxReqTools gives ARexx users easy access to a large family of requesters.
All requesters are easy to use; they require one or no arguments. But the
requesters also have a lot of power through several optional arguments and
through tagstrings. RexxReqTools itself doesn't implement any of these
requesters, it is a link between ARexx and ReqTools.

RELEASE 2.2c (Library version 38.390 [1.3] - 38.1266 [2.0])
Since using VideoControl() to get the visible display clip only seems
to work when the screen in question is the frontmost screen the
rtGetVScreenSize() function now falls back to using QueryOverscan()
for screens that are in the back (thanks to Dietmar Eilert for
reporting this).
Changed method of filtering DOS devices that are shown in the file and
volume requesters again.
Window size and gadget layout is now calculated in a sysihack compatible
way.
Bug fix: screenmode requester should no longer "lose" characters in the
color slider values on Kickstarts below V40 (3.1).
Bug fix: fixed enforcer hits that occured when the screenmode requester
came up with an empty list (all modes filtered out e.g.).
Minor bug fix: backfill pattern in EZRequesters now uses BACKGROUNDPEN
instead of pen 0.
Polish catalogs for library and preference editor included. Translated
