Short: Run Progs from WB menu, like Apple Menu Author: thor@math.tu-berlin.de (Thomas Richter) Uploader: thor math tu-berlin de (Thomas Richter) Type: util/wb Version: 1.11 Requires: Os 2.04 at least. Possibly CLICon for best perfomance. Architecture: m68k-amigaos This program reads the contents of a drawer named "ToolMenu" on your hard- disk and installs all icons found there into the "Tools" workbench menu. The programs are then easely run by selecting their names from the menu, as if they have been double clicked on the workbench. The menu is automatically updated in case an icon is dropped into it, or removed from it. Thus, "ToolMenu" implements a simple "Apple Menu". To be able to run more complex programs that require their home directory set, check the "CLICon" program of the same author. More details are in the guide. _____________________________________________________________________________ History: Release 1.11: The next update after two years: Added a workaround to keep PatchWork from screaming, added another workaround against a bug in the workbench.library. In case a program closes the workbench, an AddAppItem() call crashes. ToolMenu keeps now the workbench locked open as long as it deposits its items into the ToolMenu bar. _____________________________________________________________________________ Thomas Richter, May 1999
