Short: GoldED-scripts for C prog - bug fixed! Author: berendes@reze-1.rz.rwth-aachen.de (Stefan Berendes) Uploader: berendes reze-1 rz rwth-aachen de (Stefan Berendes) Type: dev/c Replaces: dev/c/GolDICE.lha Architecture: m68k-amigaos oops, the first release was too quick. It contains a lot of bugs, so, please don't use it anymore! I'm sorry for that, and I hope this release is better. PURPOSE This is a collection of files to make life as a C programmer a bit easier. They require GoldED by Dietmar Eilert. The error parsing scripts also require DICE commercial by Obvious Implementations Corp. COPYRIGHT The complete package is © Copyright 1995 Stefan Berendes. All rights reserved. May only be distributed on Aminet and via noncommercial BBS. May also be included to any GoldED distribution package by Dietmar Eilert. Some of the ARexx scripts are based on scripts originally written by François Helsen and Dietmar Eilert. The install script is based on install scripts by Dietmar Eilert. If you modify the scripts, please send me a copy of the modified files or at least the modifications you made. New scripts are also welcome for inclusion to this package. For comments, bug reports, flames, improvisations etc, send Email to BERENDES@reze-1.rz.rwth-aachen.de Stefan Berendes, 2:2452/107.38 (FidoNet) or Snailmail Stefan Berendes Königstr. 62 52064 Aachen Germany INSTALLATION Simply run the provided install script. At least GoldED 3.0.1+ is required. (It may run under previous versions of the editor, but it has not been tested though.) My private suggestion is: Run the install script. Replace your old quickstarter with the new one provided in this package. When the editor pops up, select "USE new presets" and "SAVE preferences". Save the prefs as e.g. "GolDICE.prefs". Now start the editor with the command "ed arexx GOLDED.DICE config GoldED:config/GolDICE.prefs FORCE " (you may set an alias or use Stefan Becker's ToolManager to do this). Please note that the Arexx port name GOLDED.DICE is required by the arexx scripts. You may also load the C syntax parser, auto indent and other programmer specific presets. Save the prefs. When running GoldEd with the command above, you will get a programmer specific editor with syntax parsing and the like. Special tip: To interrupt your session, press -%, and your session with all open files will be saved and restored when you start your editor again. To edit some text, e.g. a mail, simply call the editor with "ed " QUICKSTARTER: A modified version of GoldEDs quickstarter "Ed". This one accepts a FORCE/S switch as argument. If this switch is specified, only an already running GoldED is accepted that has an Arexx port with the same name as specified with the AREXX/K keyword. Otherwise a new GoldED is started with the given ARexx port and config file. This is a workaround for the missing capability of GoldED to have window-dependant configurations. This feature may become obsolete in the near future ;-) Note: The scipts require GoldEDs Arexx port to be named GOLDED.DICE. Use the following command to set up editor: "Ed AREXX GOLDED.DICE CONFIG GoldED:config/GolDICE.prefs FORCE" PRESETS: My menu and keyboard settings. Support all the new scripts and also require some of the scripts that came with GoldED. For function key setting see the README file. AREXX: A collection of useful ARexx scripts, including errorhandling (requires DICE 3.0 commercial), compiler control, programming support and misc functions. See the README file.
