The MISC directory contains files used by XWorkplace's installation script
as well as message files and description files for WPS classes and drivers.
INSTLxxx.CMD is a straightforward REXX script which creates the
default XWorkplace installation objects (the "XWorkplace" folder plus all the new
settings objects). Even if you don't know REXX,
don't worry: you only have to change the strings on top of the file,
which contain all the language-dependent things. Be careful with the quotes.
Do not change anything else, because XWorkplace relies on it.
Even though XWorkplace uses WarpIN for installation, this REXX script gets called after the first WPS restart after installation.
CROBJxxx.CMD creates the default XWorkplace
Configuration Folder.
This REXX script gets called by INSTLxxx.CMD.
Also, this gets called independently when the "Recreate config folder" button
is pressed on the "Objects" page in the "XWorkplace Setup" object.
SOUNDxxx.CMD is the REXX script which creates the neccessary INI
entries for having the new XWorkplace system sounds in your "Sound"
object. Only change the strings at the top of the file to your language.
This REXX script gets called from the "Features" page in the "XWorkplace Setup" object when extended system sounds are enabled.
XFLDRxxx.TMF is a text message file (TMF) that contains various
XWorkplace messages. Look at each line after the
message identifier (in angle brackets) and translate only that
part. Beware of line breaks, as these messages will normally be
formatted by XWorkplace. Inserting line breaks will cause
additional line breaks to be displayed.
Also, make sure to keep all those "%1", "%c", "%s", etc. thingies in place, because those placeholders will be replaced at run-time with variable information. XWorkplace might crash if these placeholders are not found or, even worse, if a "%s" key doesn't get a string but a decimal number in sprintf.
XWPFULLxxx.TMF and XWPLITExxx.TMF are text message
files (TMF) as well. These two contain messages that are different for XWorkplace
and eWorkplace. Depending on which version is to be created, the corresponding
file is concatenated with XFDLRxxx.TMF in the build process.
DRVRSxxx.TXT contains all descriptions for drivers that
can be displayed on the "Drivers" page of the "OS/2 Kernel"
object. In addition, it also defines the tree structure that is used to
group the drivers and possible sources of further information. Be careful to
translate the category names and driver titles only. More information about
the syntax is included in the file itself.
XFCLSxxx.TXT contains all WPS class descriptions that are
displayed in the upper right part of the "WPS Class List" object's
window. When translating the file, translate the descriptions to the right
of the class name and the digit in each line. Do not change the class names or the
digit to the right. Also, do not enter any line breaks even if that means
that a line gets very long. More information about
the syntax is included in the file itself.
