Apper v1.17
Copyright 1995 by André "CPU" Seidelt
Release-date: 21-Sep-95
Introduction
============
Starting with KS2.x an eight color WB lookes quite good, but there
were several things I missed.
One of these things was an AppIcon thats able to delete files I
dropped on it. After a short quest through lots of BBS I found
TrashIcon V1.6 by Mark McPherson. I gave it a nice icon taken from
a MagicWB-clone and was happy again for a short time. ;))
But then I had to watch that a friend of me took an icon of a
picture, dropped it on his "show"-dock of ToolManager and it runned
VT to show that picture.
Because of an aversion to ToolManagers window and memory usage I
decided to program an AppIcon thats able to identify a file and
then starts a matching program. Because I didn't want to increase
the number of programs in my WBStartUp-drawer I included the
funktions of TrashIcon and AddMenu.
Features:
=========
-Uses whatis.library for identifying filetypes, so adding new
filetypes is very easy.
-The program is very short and fast because of 100% assemblercode
(the Apper icon is bigger than the program itself).
-Look and position of both icons could be changed like most of the
other configuration stuff.
