-
- © 1994-96 by Andreas R. Kleinert.

- Only to be distributed with superview.library.
-
- Version : 13.2
- Release Date : 06.06.1996

-
- Description
- ~~~~~~~~~~~
- SVPrefs is the Preferences Program for superview.library.
-
- Any specific ControlPad settings for superview.library,
- superviewsupport.library and all the SVObjects, SVDrivers
- and SVOperators may be modified fromout here in a comfortable
- GUI-based way - as long as these ControlPad requirements are
- documented in form of a CPInfo-file placed in ENVARC: (as usually).
-
- Additionally, adding and removing of single SVObjects, SVDrivers
- or SVOperators is possible from here, if no other program is accessing
- superview.library and the related modules at the same time
- (to keep the internal lists valid).
-
- Priorities of SVObjects - concerning the order of checking file types
- when loading - may as well be changed here temporarily.
-
-
- Inclusion and Exclusion: Explanation
- ------------------------------------
- As one of the newest features of superview.library, you may also
- decide here, which of the installed SVObjects, SVDrivers and/or
- SVOperators should not be loaded into memory at startup time.
- This works as follows:
-
- - excluded modules will be written to a specific configuration file
- at ENVARC:superview-Library and ENV:superview-Library
- (svobjects.exclude, svdrivers.exclude, svoperators.exclude)
- - excluded modules will not be opened when the library starts
- its initialization phase, which means that these modules will
- never be loaded. May speed up opening and save memory.
- On the other side, these modules are not available as long
- as you don't re-add them to the system, either only temporarily
- or also by re-including.
- So you only should apply this to modules you seldomly or never
- use, but don't want to de-install (everytime) nevertheless.
- - any of these modules may temporarily be loaded via the "Add"
- function of SVPrefs as well as these (or others) may again
- temporarily be removed
- - SVPrefs can apply (re)inclusion and exclusion to modules
- currently held in memory
- (to re-include an currently excluded module you at first have to
- re-load it via "Add")
-
- Inclusion and Exclusion: Overview
- ---------------------------------
-
- INCLUDE temporarily ADD
- permanently ADD, INCLUDE
-
- EXCLUDE temporarily REMOVE
- permanently EXCLUDE, REMOVE
-
- If you don't need that feature: simply don't use it...
