| Summary | 0001968: Add chkspr utility to Full Save | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Revision | 2006-10-19 23:23 by John Williams | ||
| Description | A simple addition of the chkspr utility and a line in the Run file of full-save pseudo-applications would allow them to be renamed without losing the custom sprite that NetSurf has taken the trouble to create. The utility, when invoked from the Run file, renames the first sprite in the sprite file to the name of the 'application'. Thus it would not be essential to choose a suitable name instead of the default offered at initial save, but the pseudo-applications could be later renamed at will without losing the iconsprite. Required: Include chkspr utility in app directory creation Add second line invoking "<Obey$Dir>.chkspr" to Run file J. johnrw@ukgateway.net |

The full-saved page should be complete in its own right. Tony has agreed in principle to this suggestion. old_coaster added a note on Sun Jul 8 11:58:58 2007 Logged In: YES user_id=1384902 Originator: NO A simpler way of doing this is to copy the _file_ ChkSpr (utility) to Boot:Library:User, and then add a Boot file to each NetSurf full-save pseudo-application. The Boot file need contain only: ifthere run:chkspr then chkspr iconsprites <obey$dir>.!sprites An advantage of this is that the Boot file is executed immediately, upon renaming, so that the iconsprites command takes immediate effect. If the Run file is modified, as suggested, it is necessary to open the full-save file before iconsprites takes effect.
