AMIL_Contrib
This is just an experimental contribute function. It's written in ARexx and can be used through AMIL.guide also.
Please pay attention to these :
o Leave AMIL_Contrib.rexx into the current (or AMIL:) directory.
o AMIL_Contrib.rexx creates a file (called AMIL_Contrib.txt) into volume T:, so having T: assigned as RAM:T is a good idea.
o The following files must exist and be in your path :
- rx (found in SYS:rexxc) - RexxMast (found in SYS:System)
o The file RexxMast (SYS:System/RexxMast) is executed before AMIL_Search.rexx (rx calls it), so you don't have to run it manually.
o AMIL_Search.rexx can be run from:
- AMIL.guide
Just go to the Contributions node and press one of the 9 buttons.
- CLI
The project to contribute to can be supplied either as an argument : eg.: AMIL_Contrib.rexx 5 will display the form for BBS (BBS = 5) to be filled by you.
or leave the program itself ask for one : eg.: AMIL_Contrib.rexx will display all available choices from 1 to 10 and you can type in the number you want to contribute to.
- WorkBench
A CON: window will be opened and all available choices from 1 to 10 will appear. Now just type in the number you want to contribute to.
o You can press "Return" before entering anything else if you want to abandon the contribution.
o The contribution can be aborted anytime by pressing Control+C. Note that the file T:AMIL_Contrib.txt created till then will be deleted.
