- £B# INSTALLING !SEE#
-
- !See needs Risc OS version 3.1. It has not been tested
- on later versions, and I suspect that it will only
- work in VGA style modes.
-
- To work, !See must have been ¤1seen¤0 by the wimp first.
- You may find it convenient to Filer_Boot it at startup.
- !See uses a filetype, which I have set to 0a4. If you
- do not like that, alter the line
-
- £8set Seetype 0a4
-
- in both the !Boot and the !Run files. You will also need
- to rename the sprite in !Sprites. I have called this
- filetype #SeeFile#. Double-clicking on a SeeFile should
- cause it to be displayed in a See-window. Double-clicking
- on !See causes the SeeFile Help application to be run.
-
- When Filer_Booted !See creates the command #see# which
- can be used to run SeeFiles. It can also be used to display
- text files in a See window (perhaps useful because they are
- read-only). However, you can only have embedded clickable
- commands and many colours in a SeeFile. In fact, you can use
- See to view other files than text or See Files, but beware
- that files with control codes other than ASCII 10 may cause
- strange behaviour.
-
- !See uses two bitmapped fonts - the current system font and
- an extra font, held in the file ExtraChars, which gets loaded
- whenever a SeeFile is displayed. You can, of course, edit
- ExtraChars with a bitmap font editor.
