***************************************************************************** Arp2Req V1.1 ***************************************************************************** Copyright © 1990 Nick! Salmoria Via Piemonte 11 53100 Siena ITALY (0577)54164 You may (must) copy this stuff as much as you like, but you should copy this text file and the source code together with the executable. The program may be included in any commercial product, as long as the copyright notice is left intact. ***************************************************************************** If you, like me, prefer the req.library file requester (RFR from now on) to the arp.library one (AFR), this little proggie is what you need. If you don't know req.library, look around for it 'cos it's a very nice library with a wonderful file requester and a lot of useful functions. If you dont't know arp.library... well, where have you been in the past five years? If you know both of them, and still prefer AFR, you don't deserve this program! All Arp2Req does is replacing AFR with RFR so that all programs that used AFR will use RFR. The program should work fine on most situations. Unfortunately, it was not possible to use the exetended facilities of RFR, in particular the directory caching which AFR doesn't even know about. Syntax: Arp2Req No arguments needed. Program needs not to be Run. I suggest putting it in your startup-sequence. Of course, both arp.library and req.library must be in your LIBS: directory (or in any mounted volume, if you use my LibReq). CHANGES FROM PREVIOUS VERSIONS: V1.1 Arp allows to put a pattern in the Directory field. Req doesn't, but provides a 'Show' and a 'Hide' gadget. Now, if a pattern is specified, it is removed from the directory name and put in the Show field. Thanks to Marco Ciuchini for this suggestion.
