- !Command (V1.00)
-
- This utility is a powerful replacement for the Task Managers *command sub
- menu. In its simplest form a window can be brought up by clicking on the
- star icon, once loaded, and a command can be entered in this window. To
- execute the command, click on the star to its left.
-
- Executing commands on files
- ---------------------------
-
- There are four special operators which can be used in the command. Three of
- these relate to the filename of a file that is dragged to the window. By way
- of an example we shall suppose the file 'adfs::Work.$.Draw.One' has been
- dragged on to the window:
-
- Operator Action Result from example filename
- -------- ------ ----------------------------
- %% Enters a '%' in the command %
- %l Enters leaf name in to command One
- %d Enters directory name adfs::Work.$.Draw
- %f Enters full name adfs::Work.$.Draw.One
-
- To stamp all the files dragged on to a window, you would give the window
- command 'Stamp %f'.
-
- The icon bar menu provides four functions. Info and Quit are obvious.
- Configure temporarily changes the configured mouse speed and sound system
- set up. New window opens a new command window. If you enter the submenu, you
- will find a list of special commands, which will appear in a command window
- if you select them. These are taken from the UserMenu text file in the
- application directory. You can alter this and add your own commands by
- loading it in to Edit. Instructions are in the file.
