- Arrange a group of icons roughly horizontally, select them all and
then choose cleanup while pressing control - the selected icons will
be lined up horizontally while leaving non-selected icons untouched.
Does not work properly vertically. Only works on the main window.
- Any functions defined with a # character will be executed only once.
Eg,
AmigaDOS #stack 16384
AmigaDOS lha {v} {f}
With the Do All Files flag turned on, the stack command would be
executed only the first time, while the lha command would be
executed repeatedly for each file.
- Select a disk icon, then shift-right-click on it - the disk is
added to the list of Hidden Drives in the environment (you will
need to save the Environment to make this change permanent).
- The ScanDir command has a CONTAINER option that can be used to
open the 'container' (really the parent) of an object. For
example,
ScanDir s:startup-sequence new container
Would open a new lister with sys:s/ in it, and would automatically
select the startup-sequence file.
- The Copy command has an UPDATE flag which causes only those files
that do not exist in the destination to be copied.
- If you add menus to a filetype at priority -124, they will only
be shown if no other filetype matched. This allows you to have a
"default filetype" with menus that will only be shown if no other
filetype menus are displayed.
- You can configure the choices displayed in the "Copy" submenu in the
file popup menu. To do this, create a directory called "CopyTo" in
dopus5:System. In this directory you must create one file for each
item you want to appear in the menu. The name of the file is the
name that is displayed in the menu (use semicolons instead of
colons, and back-slashes instead of forward-slashes - they will
be converted automatically). If you want to specify a path for the
item, set this in the comment field. Eg,
list dopus5:system/copyto
