AmyCignix and display options

Hi to all,

sorry for this topic but i have a question to do and before asking for help i tried to remind to my self how to do what i am going to ask but as I don't remember i am here looking for help..

Long time ago I used to use AmyCignix and honestly i thought it was still on my hard drive but that's not anymore.. So i reinstalled it from os4depot and everything was fine..

But I remember that it was possible to open an x11 app just double clicking on it and the app will open in front of the workbench.. I am not able to do this anymore.. Am I wrong? or it was possible to do this?

Hi nubechecorre,

To open a single AmiCygnix application, Edgar has provided a
"...standalone.bat" script file which will open that app in
a window on the Workbench.

For example, take AbiWord... If you go into the /software/
dir of AmiCygnix, then into /AbiWord-2.8/ you will see that
script file.

You can just double-click on the script and AmiCygnix will open
a configuration window where you can set how AbiWord will be
opened. Of course in the Amiga-like way of things, you can
then "Save" or "Use" how you want to use AbiWord.

In my case, I have taken these "standalone.bat" files and
dropped them AmiDock so apps like AbiWord and Gnumeric are
readilly available.

Great stuff! THANKS EDGAR!

Enjoy,

PJS

yep (as pjs replied) just go to AmiCygnix/Software drawer open the program drawer you want to use and just click "Start_BLAHBLAH_Standalone.bat" icon

Thanks to all
