About DECH - Deniil E-Compiler Handler v1.3!
This program is made for you who program in Amiga-E and
compile alot, which is usual, and is tired of CLI/Shell
or the Workbench menu (ToolsDaemon)!
With this program can you easy select one or more files
that you often compile and then with just ONE mouse-click
compile the active file and one more click to run it!
Usage:
~~~~~~
EC: E-Compile the first file in the right list
RP: Run the file compiled with EC
Cn: Compile the n:th file in the right list
Rn: Run the file compiled with Cn
--
ED: Select a file to open with your favorite text-EDitor
V : Select a file to open with your favorite text-Viewer
SF: Open/close the FileSelector
C : Open/close the output that is a Console by default. (se notes below!)
? : Open/close the prefs-editor
Q : Quit
You can press the right mouse-button to get a small info-window
with information of what the different gadgets do.
The editor- and viewer-selector:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you press 'ED' or 'V' you will get a little window with
some numbers and a C. With the editor also an E.
Any number will open the corresponding file in your favorite
text-editor/viewer.
The C stands for Cancel.
The E stands for 'Empty editor'.
The fileselector:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The left lister is where all files comes in after you have
selected them with 'Add'. One file or more will also always be
present in the right lister where every item is a button in the
main-window.
You can copy file from the left lister to the right by select
one in the left and then press 'Copy>' or change an item in the
right by pressing '>Ref>' for refresh. You delete with 'Del->'.
'Load' and 'Save' will load and save the entire config to ENVARC:.
The prefs-window (?):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Editor: Your favorite editor with path.
Has an argument-string at the rigth.
Viewer: Your favorite viewer with path.
Has an argument-string at the rigth.
Compiler: The compiler with path.
Executer: You could enter 'Run "%s"' here but just "%s" will do.
Output: An output-file, console or whatever you like.
You can set up to 4 %d that will be the coordinates
of a console-window.
With |Adjust console-window| can you with a simple move place
your console.
|Save| will save the entire config-file to ENVARC:.
Usage of the console: IMPORTENT!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When you use the console it is importent that if you have started
a program trough 'RP' or 'Rn' with the console opened and the
program outputs text to the console that you must not close it or
things might go very wrong!!
It is then better to close the console and then start your program,
editor or viewer so that it will get the original 'stdout'-variable
instead unless your'e just debugging a project of yours and don't
want your screen full of consoles everytime you test your program :)
You can, in the prefs-window, set "Don't touch the stdout console"
if you start DECH from the CLI/Shell.
