Short: ReqTools 2.5 - the requester toolkit (dev) Author: nico@augfl.be (Nico Francois), cmh@lls.se (Magnus Holmgren) Uploader: cmh@lls.se (Magnus Holmgren) Type: util/libs --------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: This is the developer archive. Only includes, autodocs, glue code, catalog sources, example files and similar included. --------------------------------------------------------------------- reqtools.library is a standard Amiga shared, runtime library. The purpose of ReqTools is to make it a lot quicker and easier to build standard requesters into your programs. ReqTools is designed with Commodore's style guidelines in mind, all requesters have the look-and-feel of AmigaDOS Release 2. ReqTools features the following requesters: a query requester, a string requester, a number requester, a file requester, a font requester, a palette requester, a volume requester and a screenmode requester. ************************************************************************* RELEASE 2.5 (Library version 38.1387) Now really includes RexxReqTools 1.3. Sorry about that. RTPatch now reports itself as 1.4 (forgot to assemble that minor change ;). Improved pragmas for SAS/C, to make better use of the tagcall. Note that this may cause problems (I got a CXERR in one case). Also changed the name to "reqtools_pragmas.h". Changed the LED rendering a little. It is now done earlier, to work nicer with custom handlers that can be slow in certain operations (like ArcHandler). Recompiled with SAS/C again. ;) I don't think any problem have been introduced due to this. Increased the pattern text buffer in the file requester. The volume list in the file requester should now show all real volumes, including e.g. network volumes. In fact, it should display the same volumes as ASL, since the same algorithm is used. Thanks to Martin Taillefer for showing me how to do it properly. Added a little "hack" to make ReqTools work better with BetterEdit. It was so simple, so why not? ;) Added color wheel to the palette requester! There is a switch in the preferences editor, in case you don't like it. Some notes: You need properly installed colorwheel and gradientslider gadgets (part of OS 3.0 or higher) for it to be displayed. The colorwheel will only show up if the screen and window are large enough. The gradient slider doesn't have any fancy background currently, as it requires a rather large number of colors to be displayed nicely, IMHO. And most importantly; the top value of the slider is to the *left* for some reason. Not my fault! ;) Selecting parent in the file requester, when the parent does not exist does now work. Sort of. The drawer gadget is now updated, so that you can "parent back" to a drawer that do exist. In the palette requester, when you are in copy, swap and spread modes, the title of the window will show the current mode. The palette requester should now work better on deep screens (more than 8 bits). It will then limit itself to display only 256 colors. ************************************************************************* ReqTools 2.5 - reqtools.library Copyright (c) 1991-1994 Nico François 1995-1996 Magnus Holmgren ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 632 290 54.1% 08-Dec-95 12:56:18 ReqTools.info 530 346 34.7% 12-May-96 15:39:38 +.Product-Info 2073 1032 50.2% 24-Apr-96 22:05:20 +dansk.ct 1975 997 49.5% 24-Apr-96 22:05:30 +deutsch.ct 1965 981 50.0% 24-Apr-96 22:05:38 +español.ct 2347 1230 47.5% 24-Apr-96 22:06:14 +français.ct 1743 871 50.0% 24-Apr-96 22:06:26 +italiano.ct 2658 1371 48.4% 24-Apr-96 22:06:40 +magyar.ct 1905 935 50.9% 24-Apr-96 22:06:48 +nederlands.ct 1913 954 50.1% 24-Apr-96 22:07:02 +norsk.ct 2366 1272 46.2% 24-Apr-96 22:07:12 +polski.ct 2125 1083 49.0% 24-Apr-96 22:07:22 +português.ct 2074 921 55.5% 24-Apr-96 22:07:48 +reqtools.cd 1994 995 50.1% 24-Apr-96 22:07:38 +svenska.ct 2914 1385 52.4% 21-Apr-96 04:22:18 +dansk.ct 2947 1370 53.5% 21-Apr-96 04:22:32 +deutsch.ct 2815 1303 53.7% 07-Nov-95 22:55:06 +español.ct 3907 1755 55.0% 21-Apr-96 04:22:50 +français.ct 2639 1220 53.7% 20-Dec-95 14:31:48 +italiano.ct 4216 1943 53.9% 21-Apr-96 04:23:00 +magyar.ct 2731 1264 53.7% 07-Nov-95 22:54:20 +nederlands.ct 2748 1280 53.4% 21-Apr-96 04:23:22 +norsk.ct 3890 1881 51.6% 20-Dec-95 15:27:12 +polski.ct 2827 1322 53.2% 21-Apr-96 04:23:32 +português.ct 2872 1226 57.3% 21-Apr-96 03:50:38 +reqtoolsprefs.cd 2741 1306 52.3% 21-Apr-96 04:23:40 +svenska.ct 2498 1046 58.1% 15-Apr-96 16:40:26 +README 19671 5023 74.4% 21-Apr-96 10:50:38 +demo.asm 14391 4536 68.4% 21-Apr-96 10:51:14 +demo.c 273 196 28.2% 02-Jan-94 19:42:12 +makefile 5106 2014 60.5% 21-Apr-96 11:37:04 +DISTRIBUTION 442 234 47.0% 20-Sep-95 13:34:24 +DISTRIBUTION.info 87506 22246 74.5% 07-Jan-94 23:58:26 +reqtools.doc 1214 438 63.9% 25-Aug-93 22:14:16 +windowptr.readme 1710 797 53.3% 20-Dec-95 17:16:30 +reqtools_lib.fd 2977 2977 0.0% 20-Dec-95 14:06:36 +DLibSource.lha 502 276 45.0% 20-Dec-95 15:55:20 +README 379 229 39.5% 11-May-94 17:08:16 +reqtools_protos.h 6508 1523 76.5% 20-Dec-95 14:06:44 +reqtoolsl.lib 6436 1521 76.3% 20-Dec-95 14:06:44 +reqtoolsrl.lib 6440 1518 76.4% 20-Dec-95 14:06:40 +reqtoolss.lib 6372 1513 76.2% 20-Dec-95 14:06:42 +reqtoolssr.lib 23397 23397 0.0% 23-Apr-94 21:22:12 +gcc_glue.lha 1526 794 47.9% 21-Apr-94 15:48:48 +README 8075 8075 0.0% 25-Aug-93 22:11:10 +hs_glue1.lha 311 197 36.6% 25-Aug-93 22:11:10 +README 30201 30201 0.0% 25-Aug-93 22:11:10 +hs_glue2.lha 108 98 9.2% 25-Aug-93 22:11:10 +README 16521 16521 0.0% 25-Aug-93 22:11:12 +m2amiga_glue.lha 90 87 3.3% 25-Aug-93 22:11:10 +README 28487 28487 0.0% 25-Aug-93 22:11:12 +m2sprint_glue.lha 327 220 32.7% 25-Aug-93 22:11:12 +README 71 67 5.6% 25-Aug-93 22:11:12 +README.src 5416 1012 81.3% 25-Aug-93 22:11:12 +reqtools.lib 5492 1016 81.5% 25-Aug-93 22:11:12 +reqtoolsnb.lib 394 246 37.5% 19-Dec-95 18:46:16 +README 30796 30796 0.0% 19-Dec-95 18:41:32 +RT-MaxonPAS.lha 9722 9722 0.0% 25-Aug-93 22:11:12 +oberon_glue.lha 82 78 4.8% 25-Aug-93 22:11:12 +README 18955 18955 0.0% 25-Aug-93 22:11:12 +pcq_glue.lha 97 89 8.2% 25-Aug-93 22:11:12 +README 8788 8788 0.0% 24-Mar-94 22:32:28 +LibSource.lha 4648 1248 73.1% 24-Mar-94 22:28:18 +reqtools.lib 4724 1265 73.2% 24-Mar-94 22:30:10 +reqtoolsnb.lib 2595 805 68.9% 21-Apr-96 10:47:12 +reqtools_protos.h 20795 5291 74.5% 21-Apr-96 02:03:42 +reqtools.h 17971 4891 72.7% 21-Apr-96 10:48:18 +reqtools.i 1221 464 61.9% 21-Apr-96 10:48:42 +reqtools_lib.i 2218 679 69.3% 22-Apr-96 14:34:00 +reqtools_pragmas.h 130 94 27.6% 25-Aug-93 22:14:02 +reqtools.h 58225 20432 64.9% 12-May-96 11:48:24 +README 442 232 47.5% 20-Sep-95 13:34:24 +README.info 3354 1544 53.9% 12-May-96 11:51:24 +ReqToolsDev.readme -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 531151 292411 44.9% 12-May-96 22:33:00 73 files
