Create a dummy file for an .info file in DirectoryOpus 4.x
---------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------
>> About
-----------------------
The script adds a dummy file for .info files such that the
snapshot feature will work. A good usage scenario is managing
icon sets where icons will not stay put without a corresponding
file for the .info file.
-----------------------
>> How to install
-----------------------
1.) Extract the archive
2.) Place DOpus4-AddInfoDummy.rexx wherever you see fit.
(It is tidy, for example, to create an ARexx directory
in DOPUS4: and then place your scripts there.)
3.) Open DirectoryOpus4 and right-click and go to
Project->Configure
4.) On the screen that pops-up, go to Buttons and create a new
button somewhere where you see fit.
4a.) Give the button a name ("AddInfoDummy", for example)
and create a new entry.
4b.) Set the cycler to ARexx and click the magnifying
glass to enter the path to the
DOpus4-AddInfoDummy.rexx script.
5.) You do not need to set any flags.
6.) Save and exit and you are done.
-----------------------
>> How to use
-----------------------
After adding the button, locate one or more ".info" files which
you want to create dummy files and press the button you created.
-----------------------
>> Caveats
----------------------
* If your files contain either the asterisk (*) character or the
forward-slash character (/), which are reserved AmigaDOS characters,
the script will fail.
