         File: TrackerScript-x86.zip
       Author: Peter Folk (pfolk@uni.uiuc.edu)
      Release: 1.0.1 (05/14/1999)
Compatibility: PPC R3+, x86 R4+
     Location: contrib/add-ons/tracker
  Description: Run scripts on selected files
        Notes: 


This hybrid Application/Tracker addon executes a script (stored 
in attribute "script") with the selected files as arguments.
It  optionally displays any output in a Terminal (set attribute 
"terminal" true).  When invoked as an Application with no arguments, 
it lets you edit these attributes.  (When invoked as an App with 
arguments or dropped files, it acts just like it does when invoked 
by the Tracker on those items. --this doesn't seem to work on my
IntelR4 installation, but it's sorta messed up and I don't have
time to fix it right now. pf)
 

Now, I know there are two other similar apps out there, "xicon"
and  "pipe-o-phile."  Not to start a rivalry, but mine is better
than those two because it's simpler--no need to specify lists of
files or deal with two separate file types, or use two separate
applications to edit the script and run it--and serves the purpose
of both of them.  You use the same file as script, addon, editor,
and dropplet.  Anyway, I hope you find it useful.  Email
pfolk@uni.uiuc.edu if you find bugs or have suggestions.

p.s. The x86 archive contains source code that should work for
both Intel and PPC.  If you want the source, download that archive.
I haven't added it to the PPC archive and don't intend to, for
bandwidth-conservation reasons.
