- I have made a few changes to the AREXX part of John's Reference
- macros. These changes allow for better cooperation between the
- reference window and the main window.
-
- To add these changes, add my version of Startup.txed to your
- startup.txed file (and remove the stuff that John said to add, if
- you've added it), and copy my version of Reference.txed as well as
- RefQuit.txed and RefStartup.txed to rexx:. (These files will be
- renamed by typing "renames" at the WSHell prompt. I think "rx
- renames" will also work if you don't have WSHell, though I'm not
- certain it'll get the path right).
-
- Reference.txed and RefStartup.txed assume a 640 x 200 screen, and
- resize the main and reference windows accordingly. With full
- overscan you can get 5 more lines of text, which is much nicer. If
- you have morerows set, just add the number of columns to the window
- width in each of these files, and add a multiple of 8 to the window
- height in Reference.txed and the window top in RefStartup.txed.
-
- For example, I'm using a 685 x 235 screen, so in Reference.txed
- I need the following change:
-
- 'window 0 2 640 109' ---> 'window 0 2 685 149'
-
- and in RefStartup.txed
-
- 'window 0 110 640 85' ---> 'window 0 150 685 85'
-
-
- Hope you find these changes useful.
