Pedone (jpedone@flash.net) Moderator: Dirk Terrell (admin@os2ss.com) ********************************************************************** Archive Name: run.zip Short Description: Simple PM program launcher simliar to the winxx run dialog Long Description: Run.exe is a simple program launcher simliar to the win9x run dialog. It will store the last 10 commands you ran. It is set up to open a file with the default association or to run a program if a program is passed. If the browsers are entered, it will also launch your browser and try to connect to a URL if http, www., ftp: or ftp. are the first four characters entered. Current version is at http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/incoming/run.zip but will eventually move to /pub/os2/util/wps Changed from original: 1. Changed the dialog box to select the last program ran. 2. Changed the file-open filter to look for all files 3. Added a check for a blank program entry to avoid a syntax error. Run will now exit with rc=1. 4. Added the ability to open a file by association as well as open a URL. 5. Fixed a delay problem when opening web pages where the run dialog would stay up after clicking OK. 6. Changed the syntax to run under classic rexx as well as object rexx after my E-mail box was flooded :-) 7. Squashed a bug that prevented it from being run properly from a root directory. 8. Increased the browser file name length. 9. Allowed a parameter to be passed to the called program. 10. It will now search the path for exe, com, cmd and bat files (in that order) if no path or extension info is given. 11. Added some intelligence to the history sort. 12. Added the ability to launch the browser if www. or ftp. are entered. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
