NoClick

A small and simple utility for enabling the NoClick functionality of
trackdisk.device V36+ in AmigaOS 2.0+.

This is definitively not the first utility for enabling NoClick, but the unique
feature of this one is that there are also native binaries available for both
AmigaOS4 and MorphOS running on classic Amigas with PowerUP accelerators.

NoClick needs no arguments and will enable NoClick by attempting to set the
TDPF_NOCLICK flag for all available trackdisk units.

If running this utility does not silence the clicking of a drive, do not use it
as it might cause mechanical damage to the drive.


Installation:

Start NoClick from Startup-Sequence, User-Startup, WBStartup, somewhere else, or
load it as a resident module to have it enabled even if you boot without
Startup-Sequence or something other than your normal system drive.

There are a number of options for loading it as a resident module:
 - 68k AmigaOS: Use LoadModule, BlizKick, RemApollo or similar software
 - MorphOS: Copy NoClick.mos to SYS:Boot/ExtModules/NoClick
 - PPC AmigaOS: Copy NoClick.os4 to SYS:Kickstart/NoClick and add the
   line "MODULE Kickstart/NoClick" without quotes to the file
   SYS:Kickstart/KickLayout-<YourAmigaModel>


History:

2.0 (2022-11-03):
 - Make it work as both an executable and resident module.

1.2 (2019-03-16):
 - Now does a CreateIORequest() for every OpenDevice() to be more correct.
 - Decreased the executable sizes a respectable amount by not creating a
   global pointer for the version string. This used to trigger the creation
   of an additional data hunk just for the pointer.
 - Now using the compiler optimization level which gives the smallest
   executable sizes.

1.1 (2016-04-12):
 - Use own startup code to decrease the executable sizes a bit.
 - Handle Workbench startup message to avoid unecessary crash if it for some
   reason is given an icon and started from Workbench.

1.0 (2015-12-13):
 - Initial release.
