- OVERVIEW:
-
- wMakeWB is a companion program to wIconify. It allows you to specify any
- screen as the current WB screen from the CLI, just as though you pulled
- wIconify's MAKE WB menu item. It is intended mainly for use within the
- Startup-Sequence and within EXECUTE scripts.
-
-
- HOW TO USE WMAKEWB:
-
- To use wMakeWB you must have wIconify running. Then, to change the current
- WB screen, issue the CLI command
-
- 1> wMakeWB [screen]
-
- where [screen] is the name of the screen you want to make the WB screen.
- You need only type as much of the name as necessary to identify it to
- wIconify. If the name includes spaces, then be sure to enclose the entire
- name in quotation marks. For example:
-
- 1> wMakeWB "Test Screen"
-
- would make the screen named 'Test Screen' (or the first screen whose title
- begins with the words 'Test Screen') into the current WB screen; any windows
- that would normally open on the Workbench screen would open on the Test
- Screen instead.
-
- Upper- and lower-case letters are not distingushed by wMakeWB, so you could
- also type WMAKEWB 'TEST Screen' or WMAKEWB 'tESt scrEEN' and get the same
- result as the example above.
-
- To specify a screen that has no title, use quotes with no letters
- inbetween. I.e.,
-
- 1> WMAKEWB ""
-
- If you do not specify a screen name, wMakeWB will use the currently active
- screen by default.
