FindWindow V1.1
Copyright 1991 Phil Burk
This program may be freely redistributed as shareware.
This document and the source code should accompany the
compiled program.
Written using JForth Professional V3.0
Have you ever had trouble finding a window that was
buried beneath other windows on the Workbench? This
program puts a pseudo-menu in the menu bar that
lets you BringToFront and Activate any window on the
Workbench.
To use FindWindow, add this to your startup sequence:
RUN FindWindow -X 280
Use the LEFT mousebutton to click on the "Windows" menu
and select a window. This leaves the right mouse button
free for other menus.
The optional parameters to FindWindow are:
-X xposition - x position of left edge
-Y xposition - y position of top edge
-F fore-color - foreground color for text and borders
-B back-color - background color for windows
Spaces are required between the letter and the number.
Thus to place the "menu" at x=200 and to use colors 3 and 1, enter:
RUN FindWindow -X 200 -F 3 -B 1
To compile FindWindow, run JForth then: INCLUDE FIND_WINDOW.F
FIndWindow is accompanied by a PopupMenu Utility in the
file Popup_Menu.f that you may use in other programs.
This program is SHAREWARE. If you intend to use FindWindow,
please send $10.00 to:

JForth is a powerful interactive programming language for the
Amiga. It is subroutine threaded which means it compiles
directly to 68000 machine code. This makes it faster than
most Forths. JForth can "Clone" a program for royalty free
distribution. The images produced by Clone can be quite
small like FindWindow. JForth provides:
a source level debugger,
integrated Text editor,
an IFF toolbox for displaying ILBM, ANIM and ANIMBRUSH files,
an ARexx toolbox,
AmigaDOS 2.0 library calls and include files,
command line history,
local variables,
ODE - an Object-Oriented Development Environment,
FFP and IEEE Floating Point support,
68000 assembler and disassembler,
hashed dictionary for fast compilation,
and more.
JForth was first released for the Amiga in October of 1986.
