- Here we have a file browser for the Amiga. 50% based on the the PARC
- browsers,and 50% based on a browser I wrote for Unix long ago (whose
- name, I now realize, was probably inspired by the PARC browsers).
-
- This is a "level 0" version. Useable, but it needs some things done
- to. I've got more important things to do, so I'm turning it loose to
- the net, in the hopes that someone else will improve it before I get
- back to it.
-
- Things that need to be fixed:
-
- 1) Theres a loose pointer in there somewhere, but it only seem
- to mangle things if DEBUG is turned on. Not sure what's up.
-
- 2) The UP and DOWN gadgets need to turn into a scroll bar gadget.
-
- 3) The routine that pages the file needs to be re-written to
- use the console driver, and handle lines longer than the
- window is wide in a more intelligent manner.
-
- 4) The initial (disks) menu needs to look to see what is
- really there, instead of just giving you the default three.
- Putting in the assigned'ed things at the same time might not
- be a bad idea.
-
- Should you fix #1, or add any of #'s 2-4, please send me the source.
- Likewise, any ideas you have or implement, let me know, and I'll see
- about getting them into the first real version.
