- Short: OS 2.x MultiView update ONLY BIN !
- Author: szczepan@cksr.ac.bialystok.pl (Marcin Juszkiewicz)
- Uploader: szczepan@cksr.ac.bialystok.pl (Marcin Juszkiewicz)
- Version: 2.1
- Type: util/sys
- Requires: FileID.library
-
- ReqTools.library or Asl.library
-
- News in 2.1 version
- -------------------
- Nearly nothing, but 1KB shorter !!!
-
- Full distribution in archive mv_os2_x.lha from Aminet util/sys.
-
- Introduction
- ------------
- This little program should be named MultiView and placed in the
- SYS:Utilities directory. I wrote it because I use OS 2.1 and when unpack
- archives from Aminet or the like, I have this situation: doubleclick on an
- icon and a requester pops up :
-
- Unable to open your tool 'MultiView'
-
- Here is where this program comes in. It is called instead of the 3.x
- MultiView and for all the file types there is a configured viewer that you
- like best.
-
- How to use it?
- --------------
- Very simple. Just edit program tooltypes.
- It was written using AmigaE version 3.2a. Sorry Wouter but non-registered.
-
- I put in my favourite vieers & players. To change that, just edit
- tooltypes to fit your needs.
-
- Some problems
- -------------
- - viewers must be in your path or given with complete path, when used
- (DOS.library`s Execute function related)
- (any ideas for fixing, please contact me)
- - doesn`t replace OS 3.x data types
- (maybe in future 8->> )
- - no external prefs file/program
- (maybe in future 8->> )
- - can handle only commands up to 512 characters
- (max. CLI command length is 512)
-
- Legal Stuff
- -----------
- This program was written, using some example routines from the AmigaE_v3.2a
- package, (thanks again to Wouter) by:

- those of the useful kind) are very much welcome too.
