Modifying files in ENVARC:mosaic
Once the basic setup is up and working, you may/will want to add your
favorite picture viewer or whatever. If you do then the files in
ENVARC:mosaic WILL have to be altered!
mime-types
This sorts out that type the file is, ie a jpeg or sample, and sends
on a type format to the mailcap.
Example entry: audio/x-8svx 8svx 8SVX
This alots type x-8svx to any file *.8svx or *.8SVX.
mailcap
This matches up a file to it's relevant viewer etc.
Example entry: audio/*; SYS:Utilities/Multiview %s PUBSCREEN=AMosaic
This says to use Multiview, it will popup on the AMosaic screen and
enable you to hear any (the '*') audio file that you have a datatype for. If
you want to view amigaguide files with multiview but any other text files thru
ppmore then one way would be:
text/x-aguide; sys:Utilities/MultiView %s PUBSCREEN=AMosaic
text/*; sys:utilities/PPMore %s
prefs
This sets up some basic prefs of mosaic, such as:
a) download directory.
b) RexxMacro menu entries.
NOTE: The format of this has changed slightly in
v1.3beta for hotlist operation. they are no longer 'RexMacro1
or 2'. Use the following instead.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
AddToHotlist "address command 'run <>NIL: amhotlist quickadd'"
JumpToHotlist "address command 'run <>NIL: amhotlist'"
----------------------------------------------------------------------
c) Cache size for images
d) Wether to download 'icon' images or not.
e) What 'Home Page' to use.
There are more, but RTFM. AMprefs is a useful way of modifying this
file.
