DOSPrefs is a small commodity with three functions:

1. Control the "Wildstar"-flag of the Amiga OS 2.0+ dos.library.

2. Control the "Noclick"-flags of the Amiga OS 2.0+ trackdisk.device.

3. Provide an all new "Unixdirs"-feature.

See DOSPrefs.doc for further information.

Changes since 2.0:

  - included danish catalog file and italian catalog and guide files.

    (uuencodex) that rely on condition codes being set after system call
    work again (requested by Robert Reiswig).
  - updated installer routine for additional catalogs.
  - included DOSPrefs.cd file in distribution (requested by several people).
    PLEASE, do NOT translate the .cd file but the .ct file !!! (and send it
    to me).
