SYSSET V1.2
by
Paul Ratcliffe
(c) June 2000
This program contains an OS/2 WPS class which give the ability to set up
systems components such as Keyboard, Mouse and System from a REXX command
file. The program is freeware and as such:
USE OF THIS PROGRAM IS ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK.
INSTALLATION
Unzip the archive contents into a directory which is on your LIBPATH.
Change the current directory to where you unzipped the files and run the
supplied REXX command file (obviously, this requires REXX support to be
installed) to register the class:
sysset i
You do NOT need to restart the Workplace Shell.
DEINSTALLATION
Change the current directory to where the files are installed and run the
supplied REXX command file to deregister the class:
sysset u
You can then delete the files SYSSET.DLL and SYSSET.CMD .
OPERATION
The program controls objects such as Keyboard, Mouse and System in the
System Setup folder via REXX scripts - there is no other user interface.
Two sample scripts are included - PRINTSCR.CMD shows how to enable, disable
and query the PrintScreen setting; SETTINGS.CMD is a generic script which
allows you to set or query any setting on any of the supported objects.
If you decide to write your own scripts, then controlling other objects is
a simple matter of substituting the appropriate parameters from the
following list.
You need to make sure all the parameters are consistent and that they are
typed exactly as shown. All strings are case-sensitive.
Some settings have a high word and a low word - you need to multiply the
high word setting by 65536 and add it to the low word setting, then using
the combined value as the argument.
The program works by communicating using the Setup strings supplied to the
<SYSSET> object via the REXX SysSetObjectData function.
There are 4 keywords which can be used in the object's Setup string:
SETOBJECT=objectid
is used to specify which WPS object you want to manipulate.
objectid is a standard WPS object ID enclosed in <>.
SETPARAM=settingname
is used to specify which setting of the object you want to set/query.
See below.
SETVAL=value
is used to specify the value for the setting.
See below.
QUERYVAL=inikey
is used to specify an INI file key for use when querying the setting.
The data is put into the OS2.INI file under application 'Sysset' and the
specified key.
The key should be deleted by the user after the data is retrieved to
prevent junk from accumulating in the INI file.
If the QUERYVAL setting is present in the Setup string, then it will
override any SETVAL setting i.e. the set operation will not be performed.
Examples of Setup strings:
Turn Print Screen on:
'SETOBJECT=<WP_SYSTEM>;SETPARAM=PrintScreen;SETVAL=1'
Make Mouse left handed:
'SETOBJECT=<WP_MOUSE>;SETPARAM=ButtonSetup;SETVAL=1'
Set Keyboard repeat rate to 15:
'SETOBJECT=<WP_KEYB>;SETPARAM=KeyRepeatRate;SETVAL=15'
Set Keyboard Popup Menu key to Ctrl-F10:
'SETOBJECT=<WP_KEYB>;SETPARAM=PopupMenuKey;SETVAL=17956905'
(17956905 = 65536 * (256 + 16 + 2) + 41)
Query Print Screen setting:
'SETOBJECT=<WP_SYSTEM>;SETPARAM=PrintScreen;QUERYVAL=PrtScr'

ANOMALIES
For unknown reasons I cannot get the following settings to work correctly
on my Warp 3 (FP 37) system:
The IBM documentation says the concurrent view setting for <WP_SYSTEM> is
CurrentView, whereas it is actually ConcurrentView.
Querying <WP_SYSTEM> Animation always returns Failure. Setting works
without a problem.
The value AF_KBDCOMMAND does not appear to be documented anywhere.
Perhaps IBM meant to put AF_SYSCOMMAND ?
Querying <WP_KEYB> EditTitleTextKey returns with bit 8 set (256 added) in
the high word. This bit corresponds to AF_SYSCOMMAND which would seem to
confirm the previous anomaly.
Also, the value returned doesn't seem to track the setting in the WPS
user interface.
Setting <WP_KEYB> EditTitleTextKey appears to have no effect. The value
returned by a Query matches the value that is set, but nothing changes in
the WPS user interface.
Setting <WP_KEYB> PopupMenuKey always returns Failure, but the Setting
seems to take effect.
Querying <WP_MOUSE> EditTitleTextButton returns WM_BUTTON1DOWN (113) or
WM_BUTTON2DOWN (116) in the low word, which is not listed as an option,
but is in fact how the system behaves.
The Setting function recognises these values and not WM_BUTTON1CLICK nor
WM_BUTTON2CLICK, so I assume the IBM documentation is wrong (again!).
Querying <WP_MOUSE> DragObjectButton returns 65535 in the high word. This
appears to be put there by the WPS, but setting it to 0 as per the
documentation seems to have no ill effects.
WARP 4 SPECIFIC
The <WP_SYSTEM> Animation setting which didn't work under Warp 3/FP 37 does
work under Warp 4.

If you use this program could you please let me know. Also if you have any
comments, criticisms, bug reports or anything that could be improved.
I will reply to all messages received.
