- This simple but useful little programm has it's only job in bringing up an
- (Arp)Filerequester and writing the result to an environment-variable. It
- can be made resident and has to be called from CLI or shell with
-
- Batchrequester <variable> <titel> <filename>
-
- where
-
- <variable> is the name of the variable. You have to type the whole path
- (e.g. env:myvar) because this has the advantage that you also can write to
- other files than those in the env: assignment.
-
- <titel> is simple the string written in the title-bar of the requester.
-
- With <Filenamen> you can predefine a complete filename (including path)
- wich is written to the string-gadgets and used if no other selction is made
- or the user CANCELed the requester. If you only want to predifine a
- directory and no file you have to add a "/" at the end.
-
- e.g.:
-
- Batchrequester Env:Fridolin Hallihallo df1:Textfiles/
-
- opens a requester, predefines "df1:textfiles" and writes the result to an
- variable called Fridolin.
- Later on this can be used for example in a batch-file, e.g:
-
- Type $Fridolin
-
- The message in the title-bar is "Hallihallo".
-
- Ok, thats all.
