DESCRIPTION:
This utility opens Windows like screen during boot and shows some
information about your machine: CPU, FPU, GFX Chips, Kickstart,
memory, current time and date. You can change palette from 7 presets
and select hour system if you want.
SYNTAX:
OpenScr [-options]
-a : alternative font
better for interlace if you haven't ficker fixer
-h<12|24>: selects 12 or 24 hour system, default: 24
-p<0-7> : selects 7 palette presets (0-random), default: 1
-? : help
HOW TO USE:
To activate AWS add 2 lines in your startup-sequence:
OpenScr -p2 -a (after SetPatch)
CloseScr (between LoadWB and EndCLI)
AWS works only under OS2.x and 3.x+, doesn't require any library but
may crash if you put OpenScr before SetPatch.
AWS can use only default monitor because no more monitors are
available in early startup.
Now OpenScr is crunched by Imploder 4.0. Before that I used
Crunchmania 1.9t. This packer has fastest depacker on my Amiga 4030,
but on some A1200s hangs up. I you want better pack ratio and depack
speed unpack OpenScr and recrunch it, but i don't warrant it'll work.
