RequestAssign is a GUI designed for use in AmigaDOS scripts. The user
is presented with an ASL file requester and has to select a directory.
The program then assigns a pre-defined path to the directory selected.
Usage: RequestAssign <Assign> [<Title>] [<x> <y> <w> <h>]
<Assign> = This is the Assign you would like to create.
Eg. Utilities: Arse: FECK: etc.
<Title> = (Optional)
This specifies a title for the ASL file requester. If
a title is not specified "RequestAssign V1.0" is
substituted instead.
Eg. "Wibbly Wobbly" "Select a Directory" etc.
<x> = (Optional)
Specifies the X co-ordinates for the ASL file
requester.
Eg. 0 12 100 etc.
<y> = (Optional)
Specifies the Y co-ordinates for the ASL file
requester.
Eg. 12 57 99 etc.
<w> = (Optional)
Specifies the width of the ASL file requester.
Eg. 100 200 320 etc.
<h> = (Optional)
Specifies the height of the ASL file requester.
Eg. 125 256 512 etc.
Examples:
RequestAssign My_Assign:
Assigns My_Assign: to the directory selected by the
user.
RequestAssign My_Assign: "Select a directory to Assign"
Assigns My_Assign: to the directory selected by the
user. This time the ASL file request has the title
"Select a directory to Assign"
RequestAssign Me: "Assign What?" 0 0 640 512
An ASL file requester has the title "Assign What?", and
is at co-ordinates 0,0 which is the top left hand corner
of the screen. The ASL file requester is 640 pixels
wide, and 512 pixels tall, and would fill a hires-laced
screen. The path to be assigned is Me:
RequestAssign This_won't_Work: 0 12 320 200
This won't work because there is to Title before the
co-ordinates.
