Since I first wrote it back in the last millennium, I designed it to be as close a replica of the Recycler app in NeXTSTEP. That remains as the main purpose, but the settings should provide enough flexibility to allow you to use if with any theme you like. If there is a feature you miss, you can contact me at the address at the end, and I'll see about implementing it, within reasonable limits.
Install as you would any other module, either with the LoadModule command or with a *Wharf line or equivalent. Apply the settings to your theme RC file and you should be all set.
The .rc settings are as follows
| Setting | Default | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| RecyclerLeft | -64 | Actually -RecyclerWidth |
| RecyclerTop | -64 | Actually -RecyclerHeight |
| RecyclerWidth | 64 | |
| RecyclerHeight | 64 | |
| RecyclerBack | ".none" | |
| RecyclerEmpty | "Recycler Empty.bmp" | |
| RecyclerFull | "Recycler Full.bmp" | |
| RecyclerAlwaysOnTop | false | |
| RecyclerHideMenuHide | true | Hides the Hide command from the menu |
| RecyclerStartHidden | false | |
| RecyclerAnimation | ".none" | Image for animation |
| RecyclerAniDelay | 120 | Delay between frames |
| RecyclerAniFrames | 4 | Frames in animation |
| RecyclerAniLength | 1200 | Duration of animation * |
| RecyclerCapEmpty | "&:Empty recycler" | For localization |
| RecyclerCapHide | "&Hide" | |
| RecyclerCapOpen | "&Open" |
*)The total number of frames shown is AniLength/AniDelay, rounded down.
Okay, those are the default settings. Now for the comments. The default values for RecyclerAni* are calculated for the included RecyclerAni.bmp image. Opening the image should give you an idea about how it works.
The bang commands are:
| Command | Arguments |
|---|---|
| !RecyclerEmpty | |
| !RecyclerOpen | |
| !RecyclerVisible | [true|false] |
Without arguments !RecyclerVisible toggles the visible state of the module.
A somewhat unobvious feature is that when the module is clicked, it updates the snapshot of the area beneath it. For performance reasons I don't support regions or other methods for true or "true" transparency.
I just wrote the thing. If it works, fine. If it blows up your computer, eats your cat, swears at your family, makes prank calls, or otherwise doesn't work as intended or expected, that's your problem.
