Short: Save/print Thor msgs with/without headers
Author: roy@ebrown.demon.co.uk (Roy E Brown)
Uploader: Author
Version: 1.3
Type: comm/thor
This script will allow the user to save or print the currently displayed
message - or save multiple messages to disk. The user is given the choice
whether to include the headers or not, and if the file already exists on disk,
whether to overwrite or append.
The default filename for a single message is taken from the message subject. Any
'/', ':' & ' ' characters are converted to '-', ';' & '_' respectively.
The default filename for multiple messages is taken from the Conference name
with '.msgs' added as a suffix, i.e. 'ALT.SYS.AMIGA.THOR.msgs'.
Of course, in both cases, the user can set the filename to whatever he or she
desires.
To save multiple messages, use shift-click in the message list window to select
the required messages. If the message list window is not open, the user will be
prompted to open it before running the script again.
For printing, the current message is first saved to the file 'T:Temp.msg' and
then copied to the PRT: device.
This script will only work from within Thor.
Any comments or suggestions, please email me. Thanks
History
V1.3 The save directory now defaults to the Save Dir, as set in Thor's
(15.2.97) Global Paths (thanks to Paul Gooch for the suggestion).
Each message in a 'multiple message save' has a divider showing the
message number, the conference and message creation date.
General tidy up of the code
V1.2 Added support for saving multiple messages to disk.
(13.2.97)
V1.1.1 BUGFIX: SaveMsg now also converts '/' to '-' in the filename.
(10.2.97)
Changed printer output to PRT: device instead of PAR: device.
V1.1 Added the capability to print individual messages, with or without
(9.2.97) headers.
The script will now find the path to Thor (using ENV:THOR/ThorPath),
rather than use the assign 'Thor:', which may or may not exist on all
systems.
V1.0 Initial release.
(8.2.97)
Cheers,
