Wiat v1.20
(read update below)
Written by, Paul Cardwell
1991,92
This is written for OS 2.0x only! This was written in C using
DICE C under operating system 2.04. Wiat can be added to your tools
menu by a tools manager of your choice. It has been released into
the public domain. Spread this around!
This is a similar utility to that found on WorkBench of OS 2.04.
Under the WorkBench menu you will find "Execute Command <A>E."
I didn't like two things about this utility:
1. The default size of the window was too small.
2. It would go away and I would have to go call it up again.
Solution:
1. It will open a window 640 x 200 (big as
Hi-Res-Non-Interlaced).
3. If you specify "-m" as an arg it will use the maximum
allowed window size (depends on screen).
2. If you specify "-s" as an arg it will *stay up* and
let you perform another command.
Examples for Wiat:
1. "-s" Is an option to be specified from the CLI.
1> wiat -s
2. "-m" Is an option to be specified from the CLI.
1> wiat -m
3. "-s -m" Combinations.
1> wiat -s -m (or -m -s)
Updated in this version (1.20) :
1. Old version didn't check for Operating System type, so
this one does (finally!).
2. Now uses *only* OS 2.04 gadgets (3d look).
3. Implementation of Check Boxes (used to toggle on/off
stay up, use max window size gadgets)
4. ..and some bug fixes.
Future versions:
1. You will have to wait and see.
2. Send me suggestions if you want to.
