Hello, we are going to produce a book (in Germany) for ARexx from the users point of view. Most of our customers tell us that they never used ARexx because it's described too technical. Our intention is to explain ARexx through the ARexx interfaces of several programs and additionaly give interesting examples which are usefull as well. Right now we received support for the following programs by most of the manufacturers: DirectoryOpus, ImageFX, ADPro, MorphPlus, CygnusED Pro, clariSSA, FinalCopy, FinalWriter and Scala MM. (more to come) Now I'm looking for what those programs is missing and if it's possible to get this additional functionality by implementing this feature through ARexx. What I ask for now is: What is missing in each of those above mentioned programs (from YOUR point of view), what could (perhaps) get built in through a plain ARexx script or perhaps by using features of another program. Any comments wellcome PLEASE! — Thanx 😉 -Mike PS: Perhaps some support people from manufacturers listening ?
