AutoCentre Version 1.0 © Copyright 1991 Colin Bell Background: In Workbench 2.0 you can have your workbench set to any size you like. So if you have a Commodore 1950 monitor you will probably want to set up a workbench that fills the entire screen (approx 704 wide). This is nice because you can fit a lot more on screen. Unfortunately, some programs open screens that are only 640 wide and they are aligned with the leftedge of the screen so you end up centering them with the mouse pointer. I've been using the CentreScreen Commodity by Stefan Sticht for a few weeks (this util centres the frontmost screen when you press a key combo) & started getting sick of pressing alt-C every time a program opened a 640 wide screen on my 704 wide Workbench. AutoCentre to the rescue: AutoCentre is a 2.0 only program that wedges into the Intuition OpenScreen and OpenScreenTagList Library Vectors (in a sensible manner) and attempts to centre any new screen as it is opened by adjusting the leftedge parameter in the newscreen structure. AutoCentre is not a commodity as I wanted it to be as small as possible (plus, I dunno how to make a commodity 8-).) Once run it only uses 248 bytes of memory and no CPU time. If you run this program with anything less than intuition version 37.xx(2.0) it will just exit and say nothing! AutoCentre is fully compatible with Centrescreen & it is still useful to run Centrescreen as you might pull down the screen with the mouse & find that you've thrown it off centre. Usage: Place AutoCentre in the C: directory of your system disk and edit your startup-sequence so that it runs Autocentre. Bugs: Dpaint 3.25 is the only program I have seen so far that does not work with AutoCentre but it works fine with Dpaint4 so I will blame Dpaint3.25 for the problem. If you do encounter this problem where half of the tool window gets cut off just press F10 twice & all will be restored. Legal: AutoCentre is Freely Distributable. No charge apart from nonprofit charges may be made for this program. This doc file must always be distributed with the program. Contact: Send messages/bug reports/flames to me at Fidonet 3:712/512
