=============================== What is CDT? ===========================
If you often copy Tools from PD Disks onto your Harddisk you probably
know the following requester verry well:
>> Unable to open your tool ':c/Muchmore' <<
Every time this requestor showed up I was forced to change the default
tool by myself to C:MuchMore or to invoke a Texteditor so that I could
read the file. I thought there must be a esier way of changing the
default tool. CDT is the result of this thought. It is a program that
changes the tooltype entry of an project icon on the fly. CDT is written
in Assembler (DevPac). It opens a AppWin on the Workbench. Simply drop
the icon you wish to change in it and the default tool of this icon is
magicaly changed to the specified one.
=============================== How to use? ============================
CDT can be used from Workbench or CLI either. If you start from WB you
can specifiy the folowing ToolTypes:
POSITION=<PosX/PosY> ; default 0/0
SIZE=<SizeX/SizeY> ; default 110/110
DEFAULTTOOL=<Default Tool> ; default C:MuchMore
The tooltypes are not case sensitive. The CLI qualifiers can be derived
from the first letter of the tooltypes:
-p<PosX/PosY> ; top left edge of the AppWin
-s<SizeX/SizeY> ; size of the AppWin
-d<Default Tool> ; New DEFAULT TOOL string
If the window is aktive the DEFAULT TOOL string is shown as Screentile.
