- In "includes" you will find the assembler ".i" and C ".h" files
- needed to read the new serial.prefs!
-
- In "modules" you will find the AmigaE ".m" file
- needed to read the new serial.prefs
- the src ".e" to the E module is also included!
-
-
- For info on the new serial.prefs,
- look in the .h, .i or .e files
- where several comments try to inform you!
-
- There is also a long list of common baudrates,
- plus other info at the end of the files!
-
-
- Please note that there are several #define's in the include files.
- Try to use them instead of using your own serial filenames etc.
- The program SerPrefs (from v2.2) use the define DEFSERPREFICON
- as the default name to find it's prefs icon.
-
- So SerPrefs v2.2+ will use the icon "ENV:Sys/def_prefs.info"
- if found, (note that the DEFSERPREFICON define do not need the ".info")
- it is done this way since GetDiskObject() will append ".info" for you.
-
- A note to those who like special prefs icons.
- If you want to have one for serial prefs,
- then use the filename "def_serialprefs.info" instead of "def_prefs.info"
- SerPrefs v2.2+ will use such a serialprefs icon if found,
- but if it fails DEFSERPREFICON ("def_prefs.info") will be used instead.
- If none of the 2 icons above is found,
- "def_project.info" (WBPROJECT) will be used.
- If this icon is not found GetDefDiskObject()
- will use the internal project icon (ROM).
-
- Also note that the SerPrefs program use the icon tooltype "CREATEICONS"
- When it is used SerPrefs will start with the "Save Icons" menu item
- checked (active), from WB it is by default on,
- from Shell it is by default off.
- I advise you to support CREATEICONS=YES|NO since it is VERY annoying
- to have to uncheck that item each time the program is started.
- (The same tooltypes also exists as CLI options)
-
-
- PUBLIC REQUEST!
-
- A new SerPrefs and serial.prefs v43.1
- (serial prefs type 2) is under planning.
- But I want YOU to help me create a much better serial.prefs,
- what do YOU want in a global serial prefs file?
- Let me know and I'll put all suggestions together,
- and attempt to make a prefs file much better than the current one.
