Short: Closes Intuition windows via a hotkey
Author: bybell@cse.psu.edu (Tony Bybell)
Uploader: bybell@cse.psu.edu (Tony Bybell)
Type: util/wb
This short little utility patches the IE eventlist so that window closing
events may also be signaled in terms of *other* events. The upshot of this
is that you can define key combinations to close windows on the screen.
Currently, the file "IESupport.a" is set up to use a CTRL-\ combination.
You may change this to whatever you like--just make sure you use the right
IECLASS and IEQUALIFIERB values. (They can be found in the include files
for your compiler/assembler.)
Note that you can patch other events as well--f.e., use this to emulate a
middle mouse button.
To compile this, simply run the .c file--it'll take care of the rest. (at
least it does under my ancient SAS C compiler ;) To install, insert a line
like
run <nil: >nil: c:WinCloser
into your s:user-startup. To kill the patch, run it again and the new copy
will signal the old one and kill it.
This program is very stable--I've been using it for the past 3 years with
no problems on my A4000.
Have fun!
