Keith, OK, I'll upload it now. I believe this is the full archive. Greg
#Arexx clipboard support

Keith, rexxutil.library is an ARexx function host that adds clipboard access, environment variables, and other misc utility to the Arexx language. If you can't find it, I'll upload it for you. Greg
#running PINQ demo
Message #181884
Hi, I downloaded a demo–(PINQ.LHA from AmigaUser Library 7: "Applications")–that looks promising, but can't get it to run; all I get is: "File Not Found". Someday I'm_going_to understand the Amiga system better, but in the meantime…Help! The program is called "PINQ demo", the docs only say that the program must…
8SVX IFF via arexx
Message #44420
I need a way to edit 8SVX IFF sound files through an ARexx port. I'm working with spoken-word audio. I've been editing lines from a long track with AudioMaster, but no ARexx support. I don't know much about working with "Hex", so I need a program that will enable me…
#"SimpleHost"
Message #44247
This one has really got me puzzled! I've been using the basic form of "SimpleHost" which is set up like this: hname = "SIMPLE_HOST" shutdown = 0 TRUE = 1 if openport(hname) then do if open('cf','con:400/290/200/20/'hname) then do do until shutdown call waitpkt(hname) pkt = getpkt(hname) rcode = 0 if…
#Wshell Handshake macro
Message #44196
Hi, I've got a question about using WShell as a port. Under the heading, "Communicating with other ARexx hosts", the WShell manual summarizes a "handshake protocol". (p. 80) Although this description is clear enough, it is still difficult for me to understand the specifics of how this is done. I've…
Michael, I finally realized how to explain this application of mine. (I hope) I guess I've been so wrapped-up in it for so long that I wasn't explaining it too well. I've saved out the various parameters that make up the final print-out of each "page" of the app. These…
Michael, When I mentioned CanDo, I didn't mean to "throw you". The question I have is, now that I've created an application that has text blocks surrounded by boxes (one pixel wide lines), do I have to import this into PageStream as a "graphic" (which seems to me will take…
#PageStream 3.0
Message #163484
Hi, Here's my situation: I just got PageStream 3.0, but I have_no_experience with PS or any other DTP software. I've created an application with CanDo that prints out a number of small (different sized) boxes with text (small font sizes) in them. The "work area" where this on-screen printing occurs…
#TIME() function
Message #42154
Bill, thanks for the quick response. After I posted, I realized I should have clarified my question. I need the 'stopwatch' to read tenths of a sec, or even better 'twelfths' of a second. Is it possible to mathmatically 'break up' one second by using the 'time()' function? Or is…

Message #42149
Does anyone know of a "stopwatch" program with an ARexx port? Or even better, an ARexx script that I could modify. I'd like to include a stopwatch in an application I am putting together, but as for writing one with ARexx, I don't know where to begin. Thanks, Greg.
#libraries
Message #155156
Where is the "Data Library"??? I'm looking for arc23.doc, and don't have a clue what the note along with the file "arc.exe" means by -> "arc23.doc" is in the data library" Why cant I find this with "file finder"? Thank You, Greg.
