YamToGuide  v1.1ß (12.08.98) ©Scott Beardwood

Modified from the original at the request of Scott Beardwood

There are two simple ways to use this script (and several more less simple)

1) rx YamToGuide.rexx [[+f]FolderId] [[+t]GuideTitle]
2) from the Yam rexx menu  <-- see the YAM manual for this optimal technique

The two variables of FolderId and GuideTitle are optional.mEither position 
OR plus commands (+lowercase) may be used to specify which variable[s] have 
been given.


If no Folder or Title is supplied then the current folder and a guide
with a title based on that folder name will be processed


This script was developed on an A2000/030 25Mhz machine with 9Megs RAM
and as such the fully commented nature has little affect on execution speed
a reduction in loading time would be achieved by removing comment BUT
this will NOT increase the speed of execution once running



Any questions about this script may be directed to either myself, Chris
Eburn (ceburn@midcoast.com.au>, or Scott Beardwood <scott@online.u-net.com>.

The copyright for this script belongs to Scott Beardwood who had the
original idea/need and created the original logic flow. I retain the
right to use individual program components as I see fit.

THIS IS A LARGLY UNTESTED BETA RELEASE, USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
