WJG::AMIGA:ASHELL.ARC
AmigaShell
A program for use with HandyIcons to get an AmigaShell in the
menu. Just rename AShell.info to AmigaShell.info and put it and
AmigaShell into your favorite directory. Then add the path
and name to HandyIcons tooltypes.
AmigaShell will create a default window (see source for window spec)
or will read the environment variable named NewShellWin for the spec.
For example:
1> setenv NewShellWin NEWCON:0/55/550/300/AmigaShell
Make sure the window spec is right since there is no error
checking done!

| 2144.5 | need an executable | WILKIE::LEIMBERGER | | Wed Jan 25 1989 05:17 | 10 |
| re .4
Looks great but I don't have a compiler yet.Would you please
upload the binary code to the net.I like handy but really don't
want to give up the "shell".I have used Zippy but haven't tried
running the shell from it's menu feature.These programs that allow
you to extend the menus on workbench,are in my opinion some of the
most exciting because of the great potentional for new interfaces.
It would be great if CBM incorperated this type of user friendlyness
into It's future releases.

| My HandyIcons clashed with my system the other night after I added a
MINIMEGS 1 meg upgrade (A500). It worked before I put the memory on
and when I removed it. It kept throwing up the SYSTEM ERROR requestor.
I added a WAIT 5 between my LoadWB and HandyWB and it seems to work OK.
No explanation.

| 2144.8 | HandyIcon it is, HandyWB it aint | YUPPIE::WILSON | Tony, the HOSS TRUMPET | Sun Jan 21 1990 21:42 | 6 |
| Bad news! The 5 second delay doesn't help! It issues the error
roughly every other time the system is booted.
It still works fine when I click on the icon.
(Maybe I should start it first and let it wait on WB :^)
