PMView: The ultimate in image viewing Major update coming soon! Watch http://www.pmview.com/ for details ********************************************************************* Source: Don K. Eitner (freiheit@tstonramp.com) Moderator: Trevor Smith (trevor@haligonian.com) ------------------------------------------------------- Randomizer v2.0 has been released. New in Randomizer v2.0: * Added controls to add, edit, and remove both fields and items within fields. * Enhanced user interface for RandomInput.cmd. * Added command line parameter support to Randomizer.cmd for use when calling from another program or script. * RandomField.dat uses a different format than in v1. Therefore you must either recreate this file with v2 or manually modify your v1 version of this file so that all field names exist on a single line with a space separating each name. * Included sample .dat files to show how easy it is to create your own using a normal text editor. http://www.tstonramp.com/~freiheit/Randomizer.zip (8.8 KB) What is Randomizer? Randomizer is a sort of universal random item selector. The user sets up the fields from which to choose items and then populates those fields. Randomizer then selects one item from each field and displays the list of its choices. There is no set list of either fields or items, so you could use this program for anything from picking numbers randomly from a given pool or creating entire random characters for a novel you're writing (which happens to be one use of mine). There may be other uses for Randomizer, especially if you call it from another REXX program or script. The possibilities are (nearly) endless and entirely up to you. ------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ -------------------------------------------------------
