8. AREXX PORT...etc
=============
This section is rather for experienced user or programmers that want to
enhance UAE or to replace MUIRexx GUI.
UAE provides an AREXX port through which you can set or retrieve
internal parameters or variables such as the state of the joystick
emulation or the framerate and so on. Is also implements a "feedback"
mecanism so that a GUI piloting UAE through the AREXX port can hear
about dynamical modification of UAE variables such as led states and
the like. The port name is "UAE". If that port already exists, UAE
will disable it's AREXX feature (that is to say if you have 2 copies
of UAE running on your system, only one will have an AREXX port. I
doubt anyone will try to run 2 UAE in the same time.
The commands that need a string argument accepts quoted strings. If
the string is not quoted then it is the following word that will be
used. The quotes can be single (') or double ("). They must match (eg.
if you begin with ('),then you must end your string with (') too).
Within a string, you can use a backslash (\) to express escape
sequences. For example, "This 'is' a \"string\"." represents the
string (This 'is' a "string"). I hope you get it
Here is a list of the available commands:
* BYE
* QUIT
This make the emulator exit.
* RESET
This makes a hard-reset of the emulator.
* DEBUG
This forces the emulator to enter in debugging mode.
* EJECT <num>
This will eject the disk in drive <num> (from 0 to 3).
* INSERT <num> <filename>
This will insert the filedisk <filename> in drive unit
<num>.
* FRAMERATE <num>
