- Using The File Requester
- ------------------------
-
-
- The requester consists of three areas: A window containing a list of existing
- files, a section of control buttons, and two input lines for direct input.
-
-
- The window of files allows you to select files to be loaded, saved or
- deleted. If you double click the LMB on a file name, that file will be
- loaded, saved or deleted, and you are returned to the program.
- Alternatively, single click on a file and press RETURN.
-
-
-
- Buttons:
-
-
- OK - If selected it assumes you are satisfied with your selection and acts
- accordingly. If no file has been entered the operation is cancelled and you
- return to the program.
-
-
- CANCEL - Cancels any selection and returns you to the program.
-
-
- PARENT - Used to return to the parent directory of the current directory.
- (If it exists!)
-
-
- DEVICES - Displays a list of all available devices in the files window.
- Devices are hardware devices such as the disk drive or RAM disk.
-
-
- ASSIGNS - Lists currently available disks by their volume names.
-
-
- SORT - When selected all files & directories are sorted when read from
- the disk.
-
-
- SIZES - If selected files are listed with their size.
-
-
- GET DIR - Updates the current directory. This is useful if you have changed
- disks.
-
-
- STORE - When selected directories are stored in memory. When the requester
- is next called it will display the last directory. When the store button is
- not selected the disk is read every time the requester is called.
