OPEN URL/A,RELOAD/S
- Retrieve and show the document for this URL.
The RELOAD switch will reload the document even it is still in the
document cache.
RELOAD
- Reload the current document.
ALLOWCMD
- Temporarily allow shell commands and
ARexx macros to be started from hyperlinks regardless of the
Allow shell commands
setting. This allows easier usage of ARexx plug-ins without need for
the user to explicitly change the settings.
Commands are allowed only in the current document, or in the document
that is being loaded. After a new document is loaded in the window, the
normal settings apply.
GET ITEM/A,VAR/K
- Get information from the document in this window. The ITEM
argument determines the information to return:
URL
- Retrieve the URL of the document.
SOURCE
- Retrieve the HTML source of the document. Note that due to an ARexx
limitation only the first 65535 bytes are returned.
TITLE
- Retrieve the title of the document. If no title was defined in the
document, the document's URL is returned.
SCREEN
- Retrieve the name of the screen that AWeb uses to open its windows on.
ACTIVEPORT
- Retrieve the name of the ARexx port associated with the most recently
activated AWeb window. Useful in ARexx macros started via a shell script
or shell command to find the active window.
The information is returned in the reserved variable RESULT,
unless the VAR argument is used to specify the variable name.
CACHE ITEM/A,FROM/A
- Get information about AWeb's cache. The
ITEM argument determines the information to return, and the
FROM argument determines the object to get information for.
ITEM can be one of the following:
URL
- Get the URL for a file in cache. FROM must be the name
of a cache temporary file, with or without path.
NAME
- Get the file name for a file in cache. FROM must be the name
of a cache temporary file, with or without path. The file name returned is
the last part of the URL, after the last slash.
TEMP
- Get the temporary file name for a URL. FROM must be a
URL of a document or image in cache. Note that no URL parsing is done,
so the URLs must match exactly. Also note that many documents won't have
a corresponding cache file.
The information is returned in the reserved variable RESULT.
SAVEAS NAME,APPEND/S
- Save the HTML source of the document.
If NAME is given, the source is saved under this name. If the
