CLICK-RUN V1.0
© 1992 BY ANDRE J. VOGET
FREEWARE
With the help of "ClickRun", you can start at last fifty programs easily
by a simple mouseclick. Just such another utility? Well, ClickRun has a
built-in editor, so you can change the configuration whenever you want
to. There is also an "online-help" which explains you the most important
keyboard-and mousecommands. Press right mousebutton to iconify. You can
use ClickRun comfortably by keyboard or mouse.
ClickRun is Freeware. You can freely copy this piece of software onto
your disks, but if you want to distribute ClickRun on PD-series, you
have to ask for permission else this program is a pirat copy on that
PD-disk.
After starting the program, ClickRun is looking for "S:ClickRun.cfg". If
this file isn´t found, you will get an error-message. You also get this
error-message when you start ClickRun the first time.
The mainmenu contains ten gadgets. Each of these gadgets includes the
filename. When you click on one of these gadgets, the corresponding pro
gram is going to start. You can exactly achieve this goal when you press
the keys <0> to <9>. Only ten programs? Nope, the other ones will be
shown when you click the [MORE]-gadget or the cursorkeys or <m>.
When you press the right mousebutton or click on the gadget [ICON], the
mainmenu-window will be closed and a little window will be opened on
your workbench. After starting programs, ClickRun always iconify. To get
the mainmenu again, just activate the little window and press the right
mousebutton. Of course you can move the iconify-window and the new po
sition of the window will be saved (also in the configurationfile).
You get online-help by pressing <Help>, <h> or by clicking the [HELP]-
gadget. When you close the help-window, the mainmenu-window will be
opened.
You can save the current configurationfile ("S:ClickRun.cfg") by pres
sing the key <s> or clicking on the corresponding gadget [SAVE]. The
position of the iconify-window and the current page will also save.
Now, let´s editing! To change an entry, press <Shift> and at the same
time one of these keys: <0> to <9>. The mainmenu-window will be closed
and the edit-window will be opened. There you will find two stringgad
gets in which you can type in filename and pathname. To start a program
independently of ClickRun, just type "run" in front of the pathname. By
the way: the cli-command "run" must ALWAYS be in the "c:"-directory when
you want to run ClickRun.
Above the first stringgadget there is a number from <00> to <49> which
stands for the current edit-number. With the help of the cursorkeys or
by mouseclicking, you can activate each stringgadget.
When you start a program (click and run :-) a small output-window will
be opened. Every output of the program will be assigned to this window.
When you start a program by the cli-command "run", you must be sure that
the program won´t make outputs in a cli-window, when you have started
ClickRun from workbench.
ClickRun is Free-and POSTWARE! If you like and use ClickRun, please send
me a postcard of your home town or from your holiday. Thanx a lot!
