ReqChange is  a  program  that  makes  the system use ReqTools (©
    Nico  François)  for  requesters.  The  ReqTools requesters are much
    nicer  to use, and that is why I've written this program. The icon's
    Tooltypes  contains  all  possible  arguments,  set  to  the default
    values. ReqChange works on both OS 2.04 and OS 1.2/1.3.  

       A quick  installation guide: To install ReqChange, simply run the
    program  (after  copying  apropriate  version of reqtools.library to
    LIBS:.  The  Install  script  will  do this for you). If you have OS
    2.0,  a  settings  window  will  pop  up, allowing you to adjust the
    settings. This should be quite straigt-forward.  

       In the  drawer  named  Upd,  you  can find Upd, a "minimal player
    daemon",  which  is  ©  1991 Jonas Petersson & Absolut Software (aka
    Sirius  Soft).  Upd  is  used  by  ReqChange  to get requesters with
    "sound   effects".   Upd   is  "Freely  Distributable  Copyrighted",
    included here by courtesy of Jonas Petersson, the author.  

       The Install  icon  will install some important files for you. You
    will  be  asked  for  every  item in question. ReqAsk and GetFile is
    used  to  interact  with the user. Since GetFile and ReqAsk requires
    OS  2.04  to  run, these programs will neither be used nor installed
    if  you  run  the script under OS 1.2/1.3. The script will therefore
    be somewhat primitive if you have OS 1.3.  

       The Demo  icon  will  start a little script that tests the ReqAsk
    and  GetFile programs. It also serves as a good example on how these
    two  programs  work  (the Install.script is another example). It can
    also be used as a test to see the changes that ReqChange does.  

       The two  requester  programs  (ReqAsk  and GetFile) are placed in
    the  public  domain.  They  currently only operate under OS 2.04. Do
    whatever  you  want  with  them.  ReqChange  on  the other hand is ©

       Extra/GetEnv.Rexx is  an  example  script  on  how  to obtain the
    contents  of a global environment varible. This way it's possible to
    use  GetFile  and  ReqAsk  from  ARexx (you must use the GLOBAL flag
    with  ReqAsk  and  GetFile  for this).  Note that the example script
    should be called as a function, e.g.: "say getenv( kickstart )".  

       In the  drawer  named  Extra you can find GetEnv.Rexx, the source
    and  documentation for GetFile and ReqAsk, as well as error free (or
    so  I  hope  :)  linker  libraries  to  access  ReqTools  from  DICE
    (LibSrc.Lha).  There you can also find SignalRC (with source), which
    allows you to send break signals to ReqChange.
