- PREFACE
-
- The program Filerequester and this documentation may be freely
- distributed as long as no more than a nominal fee is charged.
- No commercial usage is permitted without written permission from
- the autor (address given below).
-
- THIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED AS IS. THE AUTHOR IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR
- ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY THIS PROGRAM.
-
- INTRODUCTION
-
- Since of Workbench 2.0 there is the asl.library providing an easy to
- use and quite comfortable file requester. But there are many programs
- written for Kick 1.3 or poorly updated (e.g. DPaint) that use their
- own, mostly non-standard file requester. This program will allow You
- to use the standard Workbench file requester in most applications.
-
- REQUIREMENTS
-
- FileRequester is a commodity and so it will need at least WB 2.0 and
- its asl.library.
-
- INSTALLATION
-
- Simply double-click it to start or end. Of course, You might put it
- into Your WBStartup drawer.
-
- USAGE
-
- Click into the field of a file requester where to put a path or a
- file name in. Then press the shortcut specified in FileRequester´s
- icon. Select a file or drawer. After You choosen OK, the path or
- filename will be entered then.
-
- BUGS
-
- No really bugs as far as I know.
- But some limitations. Because FileRequester relies on Intuition
- Screens, Windows and Gadgets, it wont work with programs like
- TVPaint or VDPaint opening Non-Intuition screen on gfx boards
- and toing all the window stuff themselves.
-
- TOOLTYPES
-
- CX_PRIORITY
- This tells FileRequster to use the given PRIORITY instead of 0.
-
- CX_POPKEY
- Determines the shortcut for popping up the requster.
- Default is "alt control d"
