Short: Search tool for Amigaguide docs. V0.8.1.1 Author: gerard@ariane.univ-lyon2.fr (Gerard Cornu) Uploader: gerard@ariane.univ-lyon2.fr (Gerard Cornu) Version: 0.8.1.1 Type: text/hyper Replaces: text/hyper/SearchGuide* Little search tool for Amigaguide documents. New in V0.8.1.1: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The "Looking for..." feedback window should now open on the default public screen. Thanks to Jerome Chesnot for this one. New in V0.8a: ~~~~~~~~~~~~ SearchGuide didn't put a "}" at the end of its "link" lines. This one didn't show up under Multiview 40.8, Amigaguide DataTypes 40.6, Kickstart 39.106 and WB 40.42. Thanks to Paul Kenneth Egell-johnsen for reporting this big one. New in V0.8: ~~~~~~~~~~~ Builds the found nodes' guide in "T:" instead of the original guide's directory. New in V0.7: ~~~~~~~~~~~ Now find bold, hilighted, etc.. text! New in V0.6: ~~~~~~~~~~~ Search routine now "locale" aware (tested only with french, ...and english ;-). Includes french, polish and swedish catalogs. (english builtin!). Installation: ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Put SearchGuide in a directory in your command path. Add the following line to your Amigaguide document: @{" Search " SYSTEM "RUN SearchGuide Your.guide"} Where "Your.guide" is the name of the guide to which your are adding this line! Usage: ~~~~~ Once the above is done, load your guide in Multiview, click on the "Search" button. A reqtools string requester should appear. Enter the keyword you are looking for, then press "Return". A small window will open telling you that SearchGuide is searching ;-) Then a new guide will open with a list of all the nodes containing your keyword, just click on one of them ;-) Requirements: ~~~~~~~~~~~~ SearchGuide needs reqtools.library which is Copyright (c) Nico François and Magnus Holmgren. From PRE-release version 0.6, SearchGuide REQUIRES locale.library V38+. With this PRE-release, you must also have Multiview in "Sys:Utilities/". So I suppose this make it only AmigaOS 3.x compatible... Notes: ~~~~~ SearchGuide is still a PRE-release, and has been originaly written for Jerome Chesnot's "France_Guide 2.0". Check Aminet/docs/hyper/France_Guide.lha to see it in action! SearchGuide is localized. If you do a catalog translation for a not yet supported language, please send me a copy of the SearchGuide.ct file, I'll then include the resulting catalog with the next release. SearchGuide is "FreeWare / Emailware" and Copyright (c) 1996 Gerard Cornu. If you use it in your guide(s), please send me an email. Distribution forbiden by "France Festival Distribution". Credits: ~~~~~~~ › Paul Kenneth Egell-johnsen for reporting the missing "}" bug. Mats Nyman for emailing me the Swedish .ct file. Marcin Orlowski for emailing me the Polish one. Jerome Chesnot , for miscellaneous bug reports ;-) Future: ~~~~~~ As soon as I get time I'll convert this ever growing readme in a guide, that's really needed, I know! ...Later on I'll try to use amigaguide.library directly, but don't hold your breath, yet ;-) I don't have much time left for myself :-( Feedback to: ~~~~~~~~~~~ email: gerard@ariane.univ-lyon2.fr snail: Gerard Cornu 11, Av. E. Aynard 69130 Ecully (France) Have fun, and keep writing useful stuff for our nice machine!
