Title: RMB in ASL-req
Post by: on February 26, 2003, 11:20:55 AM

Hi all,

I got OS3.9 installed on two different 1200:s. When I press RMB in a filerequester on the first computer, the window displays the available devices. On the second comp nothing happens, but I want the same functionality. How?

I can't say for sure, being a 3.5 man, but using RMB to show devices sounds like a ReqTools or ReqTools patched ASL requester to me.
The standard ASL filerequester has a menu associated with the RMB, allowing options such as refreshing,  sort ordering etc.

I'm at work, and this is from memory, so I could be wrong, but there should be an ASL preferences editor in SYS:Prefs/

ASL definitly has a prefs-editor. nothin' there, I checked. Hmm, was this implemented in one of the BB:s?

would it be enough to just copy the req-tools.library to my other computer's LIBS: ?

reqtools.library has nothing at all to do with asl.library. If you have a 3 button or wheelmouse, the middle button will show you the drives on the amiga that brings up a menu with the RMB.

Check that both Amigas have identical versions of the ASL library (with "version asl.library").
