DATEFILE.DOC
Documentation for
Datefile.prg
Version 1.0
08/28/88
Since GEM has no easy way of changing the date/time attributes of
a file, I decided to put a small program together to do just
that. You can change either the date or time attribute or both.
Either way, it is simple as pointing, clicking and typing in the
new values.
Datefile is easy to use and can be run on either a color or
monochrome ST system. There are no special memory requirements.
To run:
Make sure that Datefile.prg and Datefile.rsc are located in
the same directory.
Double-Click with the mouse on Datefile.prg .
A gem menu will then be displayed with prompts for the
following items:
1. Which file to change.
2. NO TIME and NO DATE change buttons for versatility.
3. TIME and DATE input boxes.
4. AM or PM selection boxes.
Change item 2 by clicking on the appropriate box. A selected
box will prohibit that item from being changed.
Change items 3 by clicking within the appropriate
box and typing in the desired value.
If you are changing the time, change item 4 by simply
clicking on the appropriate box.
Next click on 'CHANGE WHICH FILE ?'. The file selection menu
will be displayed and allow you to select the file you wish
processed. Once the file has been selected the selection
menu will disappear and a message telling you that the file
has been selected will be displayed.
Once all the selections have been made simply click on the
box marked 'OK' and the file will be processed as requested.
Once the file has been processed, a new file can be selected
or the user can end the program by clicking on the button
marked 'QUIT'.
That's all folks.
