I want to write a simple CLI program that would make Workbench think I had just double-clicked on one of the disk icons. I assume this could be done by sending an appropriate Intuimessage to the Workbench process. Does anyone have a bit of code that would point the way? Perhaps the example would be interesting enough to justify bandwidth on the net. Norman Iscove iscove@utoroci (bitnet)

This is not done by sending an Intuimessage but by invoking the Input device telling it an input event (like mouse move/click) has happened. But watch out, the click feature of the said program is not able to do a real doubleclick. To patch this I modified the provided source by replacing IECODE_NOBUTTON through SELECTUP. -- Best regards, Dr. Peter Kittel // E-Mail to Commodore Frankfurt, Germany \X/ rutgers!cbmvax!cbmger!peterk

Anything you can do with a keyboard and mouse and your fingers, Scripit can do from a script. It includes an ARexx port and all kinds of wonderful things. It's really nice! It's available on CompuServe in the AmigaTech forum. Khalid lives in Bahrain, and isn't on the net. Hmmm...maybe I'll ask him if I could post it for him. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [- O] Rick Stevens ?
