- ChangeFSIX adds a new feature to ChangeFSI: you can specify
- which filetypes cause it to be run, and which are loaded by
- it if it's running. You can also easily specify DOS mappings
- and textual filetypes and the same time.
-
- In other words, you can configure it, by typing in just a
- single line in a special choices file to (for example):
-
- Map DOS extension /BMP to Risc OS filetype 69C (Bitmap)
- - this means that when reading a DOS disc, all files
- with /BMP extension appear to Risc OS to be Bitmap
- files rather than DOS files.
-
- Set ChangeFSI to automatically be loaded if a bitmap file
- is double-clicked, and process the file.
-
- Set ChangeFSI to automatically load a bitmap file if the
- file is double-clicked when ChangeFSI is already
- loaded.
-
- Make sure that filetype 69C is given the textual equivalent
- 'Bitmap'.
-
- Pretty cool, huh ?
-
- So: to install this patch, read the file Installing, and then
- to set it up for your own needs, read the file Manual.
-
- Note that if you specify a filetype that CFSI cannot handle,
- then ChangeFSI will crash, as the only checks it performs is
- to see if it can load it, which includes the details as in the
- patch. If it can't actually handle it, it will crash, so take
- care.
-
- Happy ChangeFSIng :-)
