Copyright © 1994 by Sean Luke COWS.app COWS2.app COWS Version 1.4 May 20, 1994 COWS and COWS2 are apps designed to demonstrate basic COWS functionality. Originally conceived as workbench applications, they've been considerably extended with a variety of libraries and fun stuff. COWS and COWS2 are identicalÐthe only reason there is a COWS2 is that you need two differently named apps to demonstrate the IPC Library. Fred also supports the IPC Library, so perhaps soon COWS2 will be unneeded. COWS(2) supports the COWS Standard, Math, String, IPC, System, and Array libraries. The Example Library In addition to the above libraries, COWS and COWS2 support the COWS Example Library. The Example Library is your macro access to the application's ªJungle Gym,º a bunch of widgets and playthings for you to fool around with and try out. Using the Jungle Gym You can use the Jungle Gym just by calling functions in proper COWS syntax. Make sure the gym is visible. Functions All functions return f if there's an errorÐI know, it's not full error reporting, but I'm tired. scroll-value Returns the value of scroller item between 0 and 1 (scroll-value item) set-scroll-value Sets the value of scroller item to value (set-scroll-value item value) check-value Returns the value of check-box item as t or f (check-value item) set-check-value Sets the value of check-box item to value (set-check-value item value) radio-value Returns the value of radio button item as t or f (radio-value item) select-radio-value Selects radio button item (set-radio-value item) string-value Returns the value of text field item as a string (string-value item) set-string-value Sets the value of text field item to value (set-string-value item value) press-button Presses button item (press-button item) window-x-position Returns the x coordinate of the window (window-x-position) window-y-position Returns the y coordinate of the window (window-y-position) set-window-title Sets the coordinates of the window to (x-value, y-value).
