XWP FiltersAndTypes v. 1.0.2 (15/2/2004, David Mediavilla) Readme/What's new
This XML file contains the filters and types that I have defined in my system over years of using versions of XWorkPlace. Now that version 1.0.2 can import files in codepage 850, I have decided to publish them. There are over 800 file types and over 1000 filename filters. The names of the file types are in Spanish and in English. You can change them as you like. To install them, first check that you have enabled "extended file associations" in XWorkPlace. Then open the "Workplace Shell" object in the "XWorkplace Installation" folder. In the "File types" sheet, click with your second button on the types tree and choose "Import". From now, you can start assigning program objects to all those new types. You can also move, add or delete those types to you liking. You'll notice some filters like "????????.doc". Those are for DOS programs that can't deal with long filenames. Still, if some part of the path is longer than the 8.3 rule, your DOS program won't find the file. Some of the filetypes I have found only in the documentation of programs, not as actual files. Use this as you like, change it, redistribute it and, if you make substantial modifications, you can post them back to OS/2 sites. You can contact me, at least while spammers don't find the address. Thanks to the XWorkplace team.
