- Version.dopus5 v1.3 (21.5.97)
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-
- Introduction
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Version.dopus5 is a small, handy module for Directory Opus v5.5+.
- It adds a handy 'version' function, searching for and displaying a
- file's version number/information. Once installed this new command
- will appear in the pop-up command lists in DOpus editors.
-
- Version information is shown in a small requester attached to the
- source lister.
-
- As of version 1.3 all selected files will be viewed one after
- another. There is no need to select the 'do all files' flag. The
- module will automatically find selected files.
-
- Requirements
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Directory Opus v5.5
- ARexx
- An Amiga - if you can find one these days. :)
-
- Installation
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Copy the script to DOpus5:modules/
-
- Directory Opus will then recognise the new command and you will be
- able to select 'Version' as the internal command for any button or
- menu.
-
- Usage
- ~~~~~
-
- Once the script has been installed, select a file, or files, in a
- source lister and activate the button or menu item which contains
- 'Version'.
-
-
- History
- ~~~~~~~
-
- Version.dopus5 started life as an ARexx script for Directory Opus
- v4.12 Since upgrading to v5.5, I found the need for such a utility,
- and writing it proved to be an excellent way to gain some familiarity
- with manipulating the new DOpus5 listers from within ARexx. Still
- proving itself to be an excellent test program, as of v1.2
- Version.dopus5 has grown to become a module for DOpus instead of just
- an ARexx script.
-
- v1.0 - First release.
-
- v1.1 - Requester now shows the selected filename as well.
- Not all version strings contain the filename and
- can lead to confusion.
- v1.2 - Now a DOpus module - internal command for DOpus.
-
- v1.3 - The module now works on ALL selected files.
- Thanks to Roy E Brown for the suggestion.
