StarInfo/Cole/!SideClick/!help

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

I am reliably informed by Edd that Windoze's verticle scrol bars auto-repeat
when you click on the track, ie not on the slider. Hopefully that's what this
module does. You can set the auto repeat value if you desire with a handy *
command. Which is put in the !Run file for you to alter. Just slap the whole
caboodle in your predesk/tasks directory in your !Boot.

Well, that and it's got an ammusing name too.

Enjoy.

PS You have to keep your mouse pointer still to auto repeat it. It's a bit of
a cludge!!! Oh and if you put the autorepeat too low then you can slip off
the slider while dragging the slider about. Humm.
