NoBorderII 08-Sep-88
© Copyright 1988 Tony Solomon (C&P Software)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Are you tired of looking at those intuition window borders? Well if
you are NoBorderII is what you're looking for.
NoBorderII will provide:
° A true 80 X 24 display area
° A clean borderless display
° Access to all normal window functions (Drag, Depth, & Size)
° Uses less than 1000 bytes of PURE re-entrant code
When first installed, NoBorderII blanks the whole screen, the drag, depth,
and sizing gadgets are still available (just hidden). If you move or resize
the window the sizing and depth gadgets will become visible. If this annoys
you just call NoBorderII again! NoBorderII affects only the active window at
runtime. If you want another window (ala PopCLI, DMouse etc.) to be border-
less call NoBorderII again.
There is no need to 'RUN' or 'RUNBACK' NoBorderII, the program will enter,
do it's magic, and exit all by itself.
If you put NoBorderII in your startup-sequence and the program does'nt seem
to perform correctly, try moving the command to a new place in the startup-
sequence (I can't guess all the combinations of programs that will be run
with NoBorderII). Please report all bugs back to me and I'll try to fix
them moshe-scoshe! Tony PLink ID: Tony*S
Note to 1.3 users:
This code is re-entrant and re-executable and handles being
'RESIDENT' nicely! Just rename NoBorderII to 'CLS' (or the
like) and make it resident!

Addendum 18 September 1988:
I got some feedback from some folks who use a lot of title bar utilities
that the top few pixels of a line gets chopped off when the window becomes
inactive/active. This was a drawback of 24 lines vice 22 of a "normal"
display (I can do 25 lines if I write on the title bar!). Well this
version gives 23 lines instead of 24 and brings the display down 2 pixels
so the text doesn't get chopped off.
Thanks for all the feedback! Tony
PS. I've decided to cover all angles and include three versions of
NoBorderII in this archive:
NoBorderIIa = 80 column X 23 line display
NoBorderIIb = 80 column X 24 line display
NoBorderIIc = 80 column X 25 line display
Now you can choose which version best suits your needs. I chose
to include three versions instead of one 'do all' because I want
to keep the program size down (resident considerations).
