DOSReqTools    ?.?    Use ReqTools Requesters from DOS Scripts

DOSReqTools gives AmigaDOS script writers access to all seven of Nico 
Francios' ReqTools Requesters.  The requesters are fully functional 
and can give your scripts a professional look.  They can be used from 
within an AmigaGuide document to pop up on top of the text. Ideal for 
use as a replacement for Commodore's Installer or as a front end for
CLI-only programs.

All functions are fully documented with AmigaGuide. A "man page" type
script is included for quick reference. Dozens of demo scripts are 
included that can be run from within the AmigaGuide Docs. The AmigaGuide
tutorial is truely interactive. Examples can be seen by clicking labels.

An installer script is included.

Eight Extensions to DOS are included to make string manipulation easier
from your DOS script.

ChangeExt   Changes the extension of a filename held as an ENVariable
EqualsNull  Determines if a file or variable contains data or is empty
GetString   Takes in keyboard input from the shell with a prompt
InString    Determines if one string is inside another. Returns position
SubString   Returns a substring of a string 
PathPart    Returns the path from a <path/filename>
FilePart    Returns the filename from a <path/filename>
AddPart     Joins a separate path and filename as one. Checks syntax.
