- Example scripts
- ===============
-
- These example scripts demonstrate how to use some of the features of
- Visual DialogScript.
-
- Most of them don't do anything useful, but merely demonstrate specific
- or useful techniques, or are intended to be used as templates for your
- own programs.
-
- CALC
- ----
-
- Files: Calc.dsc
-
- A simple calculator.
-
- DDETEST
- -------
-
- Files: Ddetest.dsc
-
- This script demonstrates a use of Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE). Specify
- the server, topic and item and click Link to see the result. With
- Progman specified in each field you should see a list of program groups.
-
- DLGTEST
- -------
-
- Files: Dlgtest.dsc; dlgtest.dsr
-

- nearly all the different dialog elements and many of the events that are
- generated by them to give an example of how they work.
-
- DRAGDROP
- --------
-
- Files: Dragdrop.dsc
-
- This script shows how to respond to drag and drop actions when files are
- dragged and dropped on to the dialog.

- MMPLAY
- ------

- This is a drag-and-drop media player. It demonstrates the use of drag
- and drop and also the @MCI function to play multimedia files.
-
- MODALDLG
- --------
-
- This example demonstrates how to create and use a simple child dialog
- using the DIALOG SHOWMODAL command.
-
- MULTIDLG
- --------
-
- This example demonstrates how to create and use a child dialog using
- the DIALOG SHOW command. Though the programming is more complex than
- for a modal dialog, it allows the child dialog to have its own events
- which can be used to drive more sophisticated processing.
-
- PARAMTST
- --------
-
- Files: Paramtst.dsc
-
- This very simple script lets you see how command line parameters are
- passed to a script.
-
- PROPTIES

- property dialog using a TAB dialog element.

- This script illustrates a system tray icon application. An invisible
- main window is created by omitting the DIALOG SHOW. When the icon is
- clicked a popup menu is displayed. A modal dialog box is used to change
- the settings. The tray icon can be loaded from a resource file, so
- different icons can be encapsulated in a single file and easily
- displayed.
-
- VERINFO

-
- Files: Verinfo.dsc
-
- This useful tool shows how to use the @VERINFO function to extract
