Release 3.10 changes: 29 March 1992
1. User List:
The User List is simply a list of directories and files that the user
defines and can access quickly. To get to the list, just click the right
mouse button once to get the User List, or hit the F2 key. You can then
pick any entry in that list to go to that directory, or select that file.
The User List is read from a file called "s:kd_freq.user.list", which you
create. It is simply a list of directories or files, each on its own line.
Each entry must be terminated with a return. A directory must end with
a : or a / so that it is recognized as one. A file is any entry which
doesn't end with a : or a /. The library will read the user.list file
when it FIRST starts up, so any changes to this file won't show up until
the next time the library starts itself. (normally at boot-up time).
You can also quickly add the current file/directory to the User List,
just hit F8 and it will be added to the user list, however, this will
only remain for the duration of the current session.. once the library
is flushed, these will be lost. As long as the library is not flushed,
all programs using the library access the same list, so if you add an
entry from the FR in one program, it'll show up in the other, i.e. the
User List is global.
Note: If the user list is empty, it will NOT show up, and the FR will skip
it and go to the next list instead.
The User List ignores duplicate entries.
2. History List:
The history list is the last 100 files you OK'd in any invocation of
the FR during the current session. (i.e. since the library was loaded).
It acts like the User List, except that entries are added to it
automatically as you use the FR. If you cancel the FR, the entry will
not be stored. To access the History list click on the right mouse
button twice, or hit the F2 key twice.
Note: If the history list is empty, the FR will skip it and show the
storage devices list instead.
The History List is NOT sorted, it shows up in reverse order of
selection, i.e. last file selected shows up at the top of the list.
The History List deletes duplicate entries. When the list is
filled up, the new entry pushes out the oldest entry.
3. Programmer's changes:
a. New Flag, FR_SELECTLISTTIME, allows you to ask the FR to return to
you the Select List file in order of selection, not sorted. As each
file is cliked on, a time stamp is attached to it, and when the list
is returned to the program, it is returned in order of selection.
Note this only works with the select list, not the old extended list.
b. If the user ok's a requester with marked entries without entering
them in the select list, these are automatically entered in the select
list before returning the list to the program. This makes it unnecessary
to hit the Select gadget in order to store the marked files.
c. New flag, FR_DIRSONLY, makes the FR come up in Dirs-Only mode. This
totally ingores files and only allows the user to select a path.
The file, hide, and show gadgets disappear, and only directories are
shown in the file list area.
d. New flag, FR_USEPENS, allows you to set up the basic render pen colors
within the FR. Note that the higher the pen number, the slower the
rendering generally will be.
Bug Fixes:
1. ASL font requesters were incorrectly bypassed when using BackTalk. This
no longer happens. FR_Bypass passes those font requests back to the
asl.library now, as it should.
2. FR_Bypass was not coming up in the screen font when bypassing a request.
Fixed.
3. The Select List display would get messed up when a proportional font was
used.. fixed.
4. Clicking on an empty entry sometimes caused garbage to show up in the
file gadget.. fixed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
FR_Bypass changes:
1. Auto-Center option, makes FR always come up centered on screens.
2. New control panel to change Bypass settings on the fly.
3. Option to force FR to always come up on its own screen, or to only do
that if destination screen is lo-res.
Read the FR_Bypass.DOC for details.
Bug Fixes:
1. PageStream 2.2 and 2.2HL FR calls now work correctly.
2. TurboText font calls are no longer incorrectly intercepted.
3. other small bug fixes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Release 3.01 changes: 17 Nov 1991
1. Program-definable gadget that can be used from within the requester.
Read the docs for programming details for the ExtraButton.
2. Added 'About' feature in Injector. Just click on the 'About' gadget
to see instructions on how to use the Injector.
3. Directory string gadget now shows the last part of the directory's path
name if it is longer than the string gadget.
4. New program, WFind is a simple program that does what Find does, except
it searches for files using a wildcard pattern, like the FR feature
does. I put this here along with WFind.c so that you can play with it.
