V0.5 PROGRAM DESCRIPTION ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tiny View V0.5 is a *very* small text-view program (LESS THAN 1 KB!!) created in assembler. It requires ARP.LIBRARY v37 or higher to run. Double-click on the TVIEW-icon and select a file in the file-requester. Tiny View displays a screenful and all you have to do to get to the next screen is (you guessed it?): press LEFT mousebutton! To exit back to the file- requester: press RIGHT mousebutton... Simple or what??? When finished, select another file to view or click on CANCEL to exit back to WorkBench. If you want to scroll through the file, just hold down the LEFT mousebutton and release it whenever you feel for it and Tiny View will stop and wait for the next click on any mousebutton. Tiny View will view all files (including binary) as pure text in the window. The control characters is stripped out (except TAB and RETURN). BUGS ~~~~ Sure there must be, but what can you expect of a v0.5 proggy? This was made during a few hours experimenting with the ARP.LIBRARY. There should not be any *nasty* ones, but you never know, do you? If you find one, please drop us a note on Amiga BBS (+ 47 2 493210 8,n,1,2400,24HRS) or Rodeløkka MBBS (+ 47 2 380949 8,n,1,2400,24HRS). 140490 ~~~~~~ A little display-bug is discovered.... When displaying a binaryfile, TinyView will not stop after one screenful. Fix it? Maybe.... FUTURE VERSIONS OR CHANGES ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Well, the next step is to get it to run from a stand-alone task and a scrollback-feature. When? Don't ask -> dunno! If you are making changes to the source code, please dump a copy of it on Amiga BBS (+ 47 2 493210 8,n,1,2400,24HRS) or Rodeløkka MBBS (+ 47 2 380949 8,n,1,2400,24HRS). COMPLAINS ~~~~~~~~~ As the NComm guys says: Complains > NIL: (V1.9 => THE BEST -> F... THE REST!!) OTHER ~~~~~ If you have some things you want to get rid off (such as money, checks, gold, silver etc.) -> send it to United Nations, Amnesty International, GreenPeace or any similar organization.
