background:
If you're in a hurry, just read the question section.
I'm a new user of Dopus, installed version 9.1.0.1.2947.x86 for evaluation, deciding whether to purchase the product. I've Read the FAQs, I've Read the intro by Leo; I intend to be a purchaser and "power user" (and perhaps plugin developer) of Dopus if I can get a few more insights on unanswered questions.
overview:
Some programs allow a user to "record" actions, such that when actions are taken in the GUI, the underlying "RAW commands" are echoed to a log file or text somewhere. This is a great feature, because it enables a user to say "show me how your API maps to the following GUI commands". Without this kind of functionality, an End User has to search the help file or support forum for terms that she doesn't even know yet.
question:
This is a two-part question: 1) what is the RAW command equivalent for "toggling back and forth to change the 'source' pane into the 'destination' pane" in a dual pane lister ... and ; 2) can a user have Dopus spit out the RAW command equivalent for all GUI actions that actually come with RAW command equivalents?
rationale:
I'm a big fan of automation, I love applications that come with a GUI, but also come with a way to automate every action in the GUI via script. That way, you do not have to do everything by hand, and you can even map complex operations to a single shortcut key. Also, having DOpus spit out code helps the user know what to even search for in the first place when learning how the API works.
If Dopus can deliver on this, I will be well on my way to buying this and recommending it to all my geek friends.
