This panel controls which directories are searched for Infocom games when Frotz is started from the Workbench. The cycle gadget at the top of the panel determines whether what is displayed below relates to the directories to be searched or those to be excluded. Search Directories At startup, these directories and any sub-directories they contain are searched for games which Frotz recognises (see the games panel for adding games to those which Frotz recognises). The directories are searched in the order they are shown in the list view gadget. To change the order, click and hold down the mouse button over an entry in the list view, and drag it to where it should go (a dashed line will appear in the list view to indicate where the entry will be dropped). Exclude Directories When Frotz is searching directories, there may be certain sub-directories which Frotz does not need to enter (for example, those containing sound data files). If the name of a directory Frotz is about to search appears in this list, it will not be searched. Note that the entries should be full path names, e.g. Work:Games/Infocom/Sound and not DH1:Games/Infocom/Sound New entries can be added to either the search or the exclude lists, either by entering the directory name in the string gadget beneath the list view, or by clicking on the Get Path gadget immediately to the right of the string gadget. This opens a directory requester from which a directory can be selected. Entries can be deleted from either list by selecting the entry then clicking on the Del gadget.
