Short: Remove border from around WB icons. Author: Kyzer/CSG Uploader: Kyzer/CSG Type: util/wb David Jones wrote a rather nice patch based on one by Kamel Biskri. Simply, it removes the borders drawn round icons by Workbench, in WB2 and above. This is how the old Workbench 1.3 used to do it, and it also looks very nice nowadays with Magic Workbench icons. However, David's patch is rather yucky. For a start, it's HUGE (676 bytes). Also, you have to run it sometime after Workbench starts but before it starts drawing icons, otherwise 'a few' borders are left drawn in, and you have to choose 'Redraw All' from the Workbench menu. Furthermore, if you quit Workbench and restart it, the patch stops working - but you can't re-install it. So, anyway, the correct solution is to throw the program away and use the excellent NewIcons instead, which does this job and more. But, for those who don't use NewIcons much, I've written an equivalent patch - OldIcons. Installation: Put "OldIcons" in your S:user-startup any time before Workbench starts. The patch is permanently installed until you reboot, even if you restart Workbench. You do not need to run it more than once, and you do not need to 'RUN' the command. Requires 2.0 or better. **************************************************************************** * THIS PROGRAM IS PART OF THE "KYZER'S SMALLS" COLLECTION * * The KyzSmlClxn is a set of small yet useful commands. * * * * Commands are installed by copying them to your C: directory. * * Source is included, and is licensed under the GNU GPL version 2. * * * * Email Kyzer/CSG or see the website at http://zap.to/kyz * **************************************************************************** ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 332 278 16.2% 21-Feb-00 11:46:24 OldIcons 3582 1532 57.2% 21-Feb-00 11:46:24 OldIcons.asm 1985 930 53.1% 21-Feb-00 11:46:24 OldIcons.readme -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 5899 2740 53.5% 22-Feb-100 21:59:04 3 files
