I have no idea from which location you downloaded staline, but its supposed to come with an AmigaGuide explaining everything. Would be weird though if someone repacks it.

If you download the archive from my homepage (furnance > releases > tools, see my signature) you'll get a helpful amigaguide for sure.


About the aminetradio info... thats some arexx script which sets an env variable (statline can display content of env variables). I have no details about the script though, but looks for sure interesting. Maybe its author reads here too and can post it. ;)

regards,
tokai

that screenshots are shot by me. As tokai said, the AmiNetRadio info is displayed by an ARexx-script, which writes all necessary infos into ENV-Variables, which could be displayed by statline. This script is executed every 5 seconds by an command called WaitX (http://www.aminet.net/package.php?package=util/cli/waitx.lha) It works for AmiNetRadio, SongPlayer and normal Audio-CDs. BTW. I use a similar script to show my network states in statline (as seen in the first shot, too).

Thanks Analogkid, been looking for you since i knew you where the snapshooter... :D

Nice ambient Analogkid, i'll post more if i need more help, thx for now.

@Cisc:
Actually I use it too ;) For the very same reason as analogkid, however I display several router stats in
Statline ;)

Bladerunner, a link to a snapshot of your ambient would be nice. =)

As you wish

ohhh! sweet Bladerunner! very, very nice

yeah Bladrunner, sweet desktop man!

But what do you use to get the linux partions to show?
Still haven't quite understood how to use waitx, or what arexx script it should run.
don't really have any arexx EXP.

And how do i put the env-variable into Statline, when i choose the variable from the Statline Prefs i only get "variable not found". And where in the Staline guide i can found the text about how to use the env thingie inside Statline?

@player:

statline.guide > FormatString (scroll down a bit, even has an example)

of course it shows "variable no found" per default. U must put the right name between the brackets.

e.g.: %v[USER] or %v[HOST] etc.

After speaking with Analogkid on msn, thanks btw mate. :D

He sent me the Arexx script he uses i got it up and running and have the Env Vars in statline...
The only thing now, is i wanna know more about Arexx..

But where? Is there a Arexx Guide somewhere?
If someone knows it would be a big help..

Bladerunner, could you plz send me your Arexx script as well, to have somethinf to study for my Router info.

You can actually score several Amiga Arexx books or the a1200/4000 Arexx guide that came with the systems
