- These are ClassAct-based modules for Scalos. Just copy them where you
- keep the Scalos modules over the regular ones (make sure to rename them to
- the right names, i.e. remove the "_CA" suffix).
-
-
-
- General Notes:
- --------------
- - Requires the ClassAct BOOPSI package, available from
- ftp://ftp.warped.com/pub/amiga/classact/
-
- - They use the same catalogs as the MUI modules.
-
- - information.module requires newicon.library (you don't have to be using
- NewIcons itself, it only needs it for some of its icon handling
- functions).
-
-
-
- Empty_Trashcan.module 1.0
- -------------------------
- New module for DR 5.2 and up, essentially a variant of Delete.module
- that won't delete the trashcan itself.
-
- CHANGES:
-
- 1.0:
- - Moved catalogs to catalogs/Scalos/
-
-
- Execute_Command.module 1.1
- --------------------------
- CHANGES:
-
- 0.3:
- - Made the GUI a bit larger.
-
- 0.4:
- - DeleteVar() before saving the last cmd - seems like AmigaDOS
- won't reset the lenght on a SetVar() but will write it over
- the old one, so if the new one is shorter, you get remains of
- the old one appended.
-
- - Turned in an AppWindow.
-
- - Some minor code optimizations
-
- 0.5:
- - Localized
-
- - Removed the DeleteVar() kludge - it was a (now fixed) bug in
- HappyEnv < 1.0f
-
-
- 0.6: - Increased default stack to 8192.
-
- - Window opens centered on mouse pointer.
-
-
- 1.0: - Implemented support for DefIcons, for those running it. Scalos
- still won't display the appropriate pseudo-icon, but when
- double-clicking on it it will at least fill the Execute_Command's
- string gadget with the appropriate default tool. Better than
- nothing, until Scalos gets proper filetype recognition.
-
- - Some changes to the cleanup code.
-
- - Moved catalogs to catalogs/Scalos/
-
- 1.1: - Changed DefIcon support for filetype.plugin support.
-
- 1.2: - Fixed some potential memory trashing
-
-
- Delete.module 1.0
- -----------------
- - Has a nifty progress bar reflecting the TOTAL of files/dirs to delete,
- not just the parent drawers and files selected
-
- - You can abort at any time by clicking on "Abort".
-
- - On an error will let you skip the file, or abort the operation
-
- - If a file is protected against deletion, it will ask you if you want to
- delete it anyway, or skip it.
-
- - Uses memory pools to reduce memory fragmentation (make sure you run
- SetPatch V39.xx or better to fix a bug in the OS with memory pools)
-
- - CONS: It's a bit slower than the MUI version, since it must previously
- scan the selected dirs to calculate the number of files to delete,
- and it has a progress bar to update.
-
- It's also limited to 127 levels of nested dirs. That should be
- enough, but if the limit is ever reached, it will simply stop
- deleting there.
-
-
-
- CHANGES:
-
- 0.2: - Display errors in titlebar
-
- - Localized
-
-
- 0.3: - Able to delete orphan icons (icons without files) selected by the
- user.
-
- 1.0: - Moved catalogs to catalogs/Scalos/
-
-
- Newdrawer.module 1.1
- --------------------
- - If you don't want an icon for the created drawer, just uncheck the
- "Create Icon" checkbox.
-
-
- CHANGES:
-
- 0.2: - Will also create sub-directories
-
- - Added stack checking, and increased stack to allow upto 20-30
- levels of subdirectories to be created.
-
- - Localized
-
- - No longer process underscores in paths
-
- - Input buffer increased to 255 chars.
-
-
- 0.3: - Window opens centered on mouse pointer.
-
- - Rewrote drawer creation, no longer need large stack for recursion
-
- - If the user wants to create dir1/dir2/dir3 and dir1 already
- exists, it will still create dir2 and dir3 in it (as long dir 1
- is a drawer, or else it will exit with "object is of incorrect
- type").
-
- 1.0: - Moved catalogs to catalogs/Scalos/
-
- 1.1: - Some code cleanup
-
-
- Rename.module 1.2
- -----------------
- - If more than one file/drawer is selected, then a "Skip" button will be
- added, allowing you to skip to the next object.
-
-
- CHANGES
-
- 0.2: - Localized
-
- - Use two different pens for the label text
-
- - No longer process underscores in filenames
-
-
- 0.3: - Window opens centered on mouse pointer.
-
- - Now able to rename orphan icons
-
-
- 1.0: - Moved catalogs to catalogs/Scalos/
-
- 1.1: - "Skip" button wouldn't be freed at window disposal if it was hidden
-
- 1.2: - Some code cleanup
-
-
- information.module 1.3
- ----------------------
- Replacement for the Workbench "Information" requester, showing information
- for a given file.
-
-
- To edit a tooltype, double-click on it. A cursor will appear, allowing
- you to edit this tooltype. Press return when done (just like with any
- regular string gadget)
-
- The "Comment" button will comment/uncomment the currently selected tooltype.
-
- The "Sort" only works with listbrowser.gadget V42 or higher (yet to be
- released).
-
- In the right list, you will see the usual Read, Write, Script, etc... flags.
- Just click on their checkboxes to toggle them
-
- You will notice two new flags: No Drag and No Name. These are two special
- Scalos options usualy enabled via tooltypes. You can now enable or
- disable them via these two checkboxes.
-
- You can supply your own list of default tools for the popup gadget next
- to the Default Tool string gadget. Just create a file containing one
- default tool per line, and save it to 's:wbinfotools'.
-
- Everything else should be fairly obvious.
-
-
- CHANGES
-
- 1.0: - Disk state was using the wrong catalog strings.
- - Implemented Sort (With LB V42)
- - Included catalog file
-
- 1.1: - Forgot to note it down...
-
- 1.2: - Would lose any existing default tool at save time if you didn't
- changed it.
-
- 1.3: - Some code cleanup
