- Short: DOS/ARexx scripts to toggle printer driver
-
- 7 January 1993 TOGGLEPRT
-
-
- NAME
- TogglePrt - AmigaDOS script to toggle between two printer drivers
- on the fly.
- TogglePrt.rexx - ARexx script to do the same.
-
- SYNOPSIS
- execute TogglePrt /* AmigaDOS script version */
- rx TogglePrt.rexx /* ARexx script version, RexxMast must be
- active */
-
- REQUIREMENTS
- AmigaDOS 2.0 or higher and ARexx.
-
- DESCRIPTION
- TogglePrt is a set of two scripts to toggle between two printer
- preferences presets. I designed it with the GPFax driver in
- mind, so that is what appears in both scripts. Just change
- the .pre filenames in either script to customize for your own
- two preset files. Two example preset files are included. You
- will have to alter them for your own setup.
-
- To make a preset file, just load up the Printer preferences
- from the SYS:Prefs/ directory, adjust the settings to your
- liking, and select "Save As..." from the menu bar and give the
- preset file a name of your liking. It is good practice to save
- them to the SYS:Prefs/Presets/ directory.
-
- The ARexx version can be run either from the shell or can be
- called from a program that can run ARexx scripts such as a word
- processor, fax program, or terminal program.
-
- The AmigaDOS script version can be run with the 'execute' command
- or can be run without execute provided the +s protection has been
- set.
-
- Either can also be run from the provided icons.
-
- LICENSE
- Feel free to demolish this to your liking, I have placed these
- scripts in the public domain.
-
- DISCLAIMER
- These scripts work fine on my system. I take no responsibility
- for any damage that might occur from use of these scripts on your
- own system.
