- ReadMe / TES - The Electric Slave
- ======================================================================
-
- I know TES will make you scream & shout, since it adds more power to
- any CLI-Window. But...why? Well, TES offers you 7 Gadgets which may be
- assigned to any CLI-command! So you don't have to type <DIR DF0:> ...
- just assign Gadget "U0" to <DIR DF0:> - click it - and the cmd will be
- executed.
-
-
- Important note
- --------------
- TES has to be the very first (!) task started after the CLI - Window
- opens, since it searches Intuition's FirstWindow. In other words: no
- other windows should open before TES is running.
- The reason isn't very hard to guess: CLI-msgs or text (directories,..)
- are sent to the current CLI-window. So when TES powers up and finds
- any other window that's already open, it believes it's a CLI-window.
- So text is sent to the wrong window and you'll never see it!

- Assigning Gadgets
- -----------------
- Assigning commands to TES' Gadgets is a bit tricky, since you have to
- compile TES each time you wish to change the assignment. Yeah, I know,
- that's what you call bullshit, but Im too tired to add a feature that
- allows to simply create a command-file that's read when TES powers up.
- Just have a look at TES.c to see where to insert your own commands.
-
- There are four pre-defined Gadgets. Try them. TES should be compiled
- with Aztec 3.4a.
