Features
--------
Patches filer so that the system font text in the "Full info" display is
replaced by the same outline font as the rest of the desktop.
********************************************************************************
Patching the Filer
------------------
Note: This patch only works with Filer version 1.64 (the one in RISC OS 3.1x)
Simply double click on the !OutFiler application. This should create a new
file called "NewFiler" in the same directory. This is the patched Filer module.
When run, the version number of the Filer is checked, and if it is not 1.64 then
a error is reported.
This patch has been tested with "FilerPatch" v1.15 by Jens H. Ovesen. By running
!OutPatch after !FilerPtch, "FilerPatch" v1.15 can be patched to use outline
fonts.
********************************************************************************
Installing the new filer
------------------------
The new Filer module created by !OutFiler must be loaded before the desktop is
started. This is easily done as part of your boot sequence by, for example,
adding the following lines
*RMLoad SCSI::SCSI_4.$.!Boot.NewFiler
(Note: replace the path to the !Boot application with that for your own system
or your preferred location of the files)
NOTE: To work, the module OutlineWimp (file outlnwimp) must be loaded as well.
This should be done anyway if you are using the patched WindowManager.
