Short: Module to use BetterString.mcc in AmigaE Author: Allan Odgaard, translated to E by Daniel Westerberg Uploader: Daniel Westerberg (deniil algonet se) Type: dev/e Version: 11.5 Architecture: m68k-amigaos This is a translation of the BetterString_mcc.h V11.5 (21-May-00) Copyright © 2000 Allan Odgaard. All rights reserved. to Amiga-E. Get the complete achive at http://www.diku.dk/students/duff/ for full documentation and the .mcc itself! Place the file BetterString_mcc.m in EModules:mui/ . I also made 8 simplifying macros and included them into the e-module: * BString(contents) - Create a simple BetterString. Ex. Child, BString('test') * BStringID(contents,id) - Create a BetterString with an ID so it can remember the string contents. Ex. Child, BString('better test',"ID01") * BKeyString(contents,controlchar) - Create a BetterString that can be activated with an hotkey. Ex. Child, BString('even better test',"a") * BKeyStringID(contents,controlchar,id) - Create a BetterString that can be activated with an hotkey and that has an ID so it can remember the string contents. Ex. Child, BString('best test :)',"b","ID02") The following 4 is the same as above but they have the MUIA_String_MaxLen attribute set, note the "L" in the macro name: * BLString(contents,maxlen) - Create a simple BetterString. Ex. Child, BString('test',100) * BLStringID(contents,maxlen,id) - Create a BetterString with an ID so it can remember the string contents. Ex. Child, BString('better test',100,"ID03") * BLKeyString(contents,maxlen,controlchar) - Create a BetterString that can be activated with an hotkey. Ex. Child, BString('even better test',200,"c") * BLKeyStringID(contents,maxlen,controlchar,id) - Create a BetterString that can be activated with an hotkey and that has an ID so it can remember the string contents. Ex. Child, BString('best test :)',150,"d","ID04") -- Other creations by Deniil 715! can be found on OnyxSoft homepage at: http://www.onyxsoft.nu/ Feel free to mail me if you found bugs or have suggestions!
