Welcome to the home of asl.library v42.0

Yes, it's true - the all-new, configurable system requester library, the asl.library has been released. The people responsible are Miloslaw Smyk and Marcin Orlowski of W.F.M.H...

Asl.library v42.0 is available for downloading here:

Get the LhA archive (ca. 85KB)

Also you can read documentation on-line. The "Usage" page may look a bit weird, depending on the font your browser uses.

These are just some of the new features of asl.library:

• configurable default position and size of the requesters,
• all requesters can be open relative to mouse, current screen, parent window and so on,
• all requesters open on visible part of virtual screens...
• ...and bring the screen to front,
• file requester can now use proportional fonts,
• order of files/directories in filerequester can be changed,
• file requester can sort volumes by devices name,
• default values in ScreenMode requester can be changed, too.

As it can be easily seen it uses MagicUserInterface! If you are one of these persons that for absolutely no reason hate MUI, you will be happy to learn that usual gadtools-style preferences editor is in the works and will be available shortly.
