              If I doesn't get it (again) I'll take legal actions!
              Others may freely copy'n'spread this.

This is a replacement for workbench's execute command function,
it currently features:

 o Doesn't freeze workbench.
 o Font sensitive.
 o AppWindow (means; drag icons into window)
 o Has history (use arrow up/down)
 o Opens at default pubscreen
 o Executes S:Performer-Startup, so pipe and alias can be used...
 o Clones the WB's path list.
 o KingCON style Alt-Return (and 50% Ctrl-Return)
 o Lousy documentation

ToDo:
¯¯¯¯¯
 o Shift Arrow up/down should search in buffer (Like KCon)
 o Tooltype enviroment, and WB startup...
 o Set CurrentDir
 o ">NIL:"-Checkmark and a browse gadget
 o When activating Performer, text in stringgad. should be blocked, like Windows.
 o >HELP< should bring up a listview, showing the history-buffer - Then select!
 o Totally shine up - MWB icon beside the string gad. etc.
 o Users suggestions... -> Duff@DK-Online.DK

Install:

Copy Performer to C:

Insert this line in your StartUp-Sequence *AFTER* your Path setup!
Run <>NIL: C:Performer

Either copy the example S/Performer-StartUp to S: or make you own.

MakeOwnPerformer-StartUp:

The Performer-StartUp is just a script that'll be executed before executing
the command entered in the stringgadget, this script could contain some Alias
or set the _PChar (pipe char!)... or it could be empty... You could also just
clone your Shell-StartUp to Performer-StartUp - However the Shell-StartUp may
contain Prompt settings and Echo, which is waste of time... Plus it creates
an output window! So remove these lines!

HowToUse:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
When a WB window is active; press LAmiga+E, otherwise press LAlt+E.

This will then bring up a window. Enter the command you want executed, drop
icons into the window, or press arrow up(/down) for a previous executed
command...
