Need DirWork2.1 manual
« on: June 07, 2011, 02:35:42 PM »
Help me, I'm trying to get my head around Dirwork configuration program but there's little help to be found in the program itself and I more and more understand that there's loads of untapped potential I'm missing out on.

Do anyone have an electronik version of the manual?

Thanks Gulliver, it's a start however I think I'm past what that can teach me and is searching for some in depth information. %s %f %g %-Z etc... what are the different ones and what do they do for presenting information, change information or bring up requesters or what not? Some are used in other config files so you get an idea but it seem like there's untapped ones just waiting for someone like me to play around with them. ;)

Start to get the hang of it... thought I add some of my findings and ask if someone could fill in the blanks and/or correct me where I'm wrong?

Is there a "Current Directory" special letter? Wish I could keep DW config simple and avoid assigning the DW dir (run programs from "Current Director" works by selecting that it is the config editor even when it's not but it's still limiting).

% Initiate a special result
if % is followed by a number before a letter = the amount of charracters the result will be given (negative=align left) OR the pallette index color it reprecent.
