Short: ARexx: add dummy file for an .info file Author: Wizardry and Steamworks Uploader: "Wizardry and Steamworks" Type: util/dopus Version: 1.0 Architecture: generic --------------------------------------------------------------- Create a dummy file for an .info file in DirectoryOpus 4.x --------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------- >> About ----------------------- The script adds a dummy file for .info files such that the snapshot feature will work. A good usage scenario is managing icon sets where icons will not stay put without a corresponding file for the .info file. ----------------------- >> How to install ----------------------- 1.) Extract the archive 2.) Place DOpus4-AddInfoDummy.rexx wherever you see fit. (It is tidy, for example, to create an ARexx directory in DOPUS4: and then place your scripts there.) 3.) Open DirectoryOpus4 and right-click and go to Project->Configure 4.) On the screen that pops-up, go to Buttons and create a new button somewhere where you see fit. 4a.) Give the button a name ("AddInfoDummy", for example) and create a new entry. 4b.) Set the cycler to ARexx and click the magnifying glass to enter the path to the DOpus4-AddInfoDummy.rexx script. 5.) You do not need to set any flags. 6.) Save and exit and you are done. ----------------------- >> How to use ----------------------- After adding the button, locate one or more ".info" files which you want to create dummy files and press the button you created. ----------------------- >> Caveats ---------------------- * If your files contain either the asterisk (*) character or the forward-slash character (/), which are reserved AmigaDOS characters, the script will fail. ----------------------- >> Project Website ----------------------- http://grimore.org/amiga/directoryopus/4/addinfodummy ----------------------- >> Feedback ----------------------- You can reach us at: Wizardry and Steamworks e-mail: office@grimore.org
