AISSviewer

AISSview is a viewer for Martin ‚mason‘ Merz toolbar images (AISS). This version of AISSview needs AISS 4.12 to be installed. With no or older versions of AISS it is still usable for the creation of new toolbar buttons in USER MODE (see TOOLTYPEs).

Tooltypes

Introduced with 0.18 is the new TOOLTYPE value MODE, which can be set to USER or VIEW. The VIEW mode starts AISSview in the usual viewer mode, the USER mode starts directly into the „create user button“ mode. The TOOLTYPE for PORTNAME is not used atm.

CLI argument template

All TOOLTYPE arguments can now be set by starting through CLI as well:

MODE/K,TD=TEMPDIR/S,DELTD=DELETETEMPONEXIT/S,AU=AMIUPDATE/S,PN=PORTNAME/K.

For further information please refer to Dave Norris‘ original readme. The archive name is intentionally ‚AISSviewer‘, so Daves original archive remains untouched. The source code for AISSview 0.20 is uploaded separately.
