- ToolsDaemon allows you to run programs simply by selecting a menu item
- from the menu strip of Workbench 2.0 or higher. Shell and Workbench
- programs are supported, including arguments and tool types for both of
- these. The menu items can be arranged in several menus, with sub-items
- and keyboard shortcuts.
-
- ToolsPrefs is designed as a preferences editor for the ToolsDaemon menus.
- It features a font-sensitive localized GadTools front-end and supports the
- 2.0 AppWindow feature. This means it allows you to drag programs into its
- window and they will be automatically added to the menu items list.
-
- ToolsDaemon is the background program that will launch the tools you
- select from the menu strip. It is meant to be dragged into the WbStartup
- drawer so it will automatically be launched on startup.

- VERSION 2.1a
-
- o Really fixed the hanging problem I fixed in ToolsDaemon 2.1 :-) If
- you managed to select *the* *first* menu item a split second after
- activating a Workbench window ToolsDaemon would still hang. The
- same problem occured on machines running TWA and when picking the
- first item just after quitting Directory Opus.
- o ToolsPrefs will now set its current directory to PROGDIR:.
- o ToolsPrefs window is now simple refresh and uses the Kickstart 3.0
- or higher zoom-in-place feature.
- o Dropping a "fake" icon (Show all files) in the ToolsPrefs window
- will now automatically enter the program as a CLI command.
- o There was a problem with ToolsDaemon on Workbench 2.0. ToolsDaemon
- would abort silently if it was the first Commodity that was run
- (probably due to a bug in commodities.library V37; V38 and higher
- worked fine). This is fixed now.
- o Updated icons to Workbench 3 look :-)
- o New french catalog included, translated by Benoit Mortier.
- o Italian catalog included, translated by Nicola Salmoria.
- o Release 2.2a (38.1210) of reqtools.library included.
