Re: USB Devices "Eject"

@salass00 So, is there any way of finding out what exactly the Dismount function of the Mass Storage commodity is doing? I'm not familiar with the details of USB programming, but if we knew roughly the steps / calls made by the Dismount option, it should be relatively easy to knock together a simple...

Re: Internet via an USB connected Smartphone

Can't remember the last time I tethered that way. It's not what you asked for, but tethering works quite well using your phone as a Wifi hotspot. You can still charge it from USB. Of course you'll need a Wifi card in the computer but these are relatively cheap and the prism2 drivers work well provid...

Re: USB Devices "Eject"

Is this accessible by ARexx/Scripting MessagePort? Access from scripting as a DISMOUNT command given a volume/dosdriver name may solve this request very neatly. I've already checked and there's no mention of any scripting or command-line abilities in the brief documentation. Pity, as that would hav...

@salass00
True, though that method doesn't lend itself to use in a context-sensitive menu.

Re: USB Devices "Eject"

Well this would mean that "C:DiskChange <DOSdriver>:" followed by "C:Dismount <DOSdriver>:" would work within an ARexx script given usage of "ContextMenus" and "Workbench ARexx" features being present Anyone want to give that idea a go? maybe throw it on os4d...

Toni only has to ask any of us and he will receive any assistance he needs.
So, does that mean that there's something that Toni can do with code in WinUAE that will enable the use of Z3 RAM as main system RAM? Because that would be wonderful news!

Re: Locale change and pop up menu

The popup menus are a commodity and are therefore a separate program from the Workbench itself. This means they take care of their own strings. Whoever maintains the popup menu commodity could add a notification for locale changes, on which notification it could rebuild its strings to the new langua...

Re: YAM update problem

It's probably the out of date SSL support that causes that problem. It's the same issue that will prevent YAM, SimpleMail etc. from working with many mail providers including GMail.

Re: 11 Requests / Improvements

Yeah, that makes perfect sense... But then how does it insert characters into the Shell window, FinalWriter etc?

Re: 11 Requests / Improvements

Really? Oops, my mistake. Last time I checked that wasn't the case, but I guess that's a while ago now.

Sounds like a bug in Notepad then, or something funny in the interaction between the input stream and ReAction perhaps...
