!SLIPdial/Resources/UK/Help/icon

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.

File contents
icon/id=<id> [/file=<filename>] [/action=<command>] <spritename>
 adds an icon to the icon bar. Up to 5 extra icons can be added, each with
 their own associated actions and menus.
 /id=<id> identifies the icon (either a new icon or replacement)
 /file=<filename> loads the named sprite file into slipdial's sprite pool
        (note, limited space available!)
 /action=<command> defines script command to execute when icon is clicked.

icon/cancel=<id> deletes an icon from the iconbar.

icon /free returns the amount of free space in the slipdial sprite area. This
 can be used to check whether it is possible to load a sprite file.
