Archive-Name: infidx12.zip
Program-Name: infidx.exe
Version.....: 1.3
Abstract....: A program to open an INF-file from a user configurable selection-
listbox of all INF-files instead of over WPS-Objects.
OS/2-Version: 2.1 GA german (builded and testet)
Purpose.....: As I have much of my INF-files on a removable MO-disk, I don't
want to create static WPS-objects for them, but I need a way to
decect dynamically which INF-files are there and display only
these ones. (Is the disk insertet or not?)
Other advantages are:
- fixed screen portion needed (independent of # of INF-files)
- order/sorting determined by user (order of dirs in BOOKSHELF
and order of entries in the config files)
- the setup is easily ported over all reinstallations, as it is
done in plain text files
- you can add your own (longer) titles to the INF-files in the
list
This program is to fullfill this job. It will search in all
directories listed in the environment variable BOOKSHELF for a
file called 'infidx'. These configuration files must hold the
name and a description for all the INF-files that are to be shown
in the selection list. There may reside one 'infidx'-file in each
scanned directory and the contents of all of them is shown in the
list in the order the entries are read.
The program interfaces the user with a dialog. This dialog
contains a listbox, and four buttons (OPEN, EXIT, REINIT and
ABOUT).
To view an INF-file, select the corresponding entry in the listbox
and push the OPEN button.
To exit the program just push the EXIT button.
To rebuild the list after any changes made by you (changes of a
config file or media changes in drives in your BOOKSHELF-path).
Keywords....: PM, 32bit, INF, VIEW, PM-TOOLS, DOCUMENTATION
Location....: ??? pm-tools (as I write this I do not know where it was put by
you)
Replacement.: This release replaces infidx12.zip.
Changes.....: - Fixed a memory leak on reinit action.
- Added LICENCE and DISCLAIMER to documentation.
