17 Bit Cli Utility Disk III This disk has been made so people can get on with CLI a lot better! This disk features some excellent PD/shareware programs that really do make CLI usage far easier - after using the programs for only a short time you'll realise the ease and timesaving that the utilities provide. For full information on Utilmaster read the document provided, the operation of that particular program is very similar to the others so you should be able to use both CLI Wizard and Dir_Util V5 with few problems. Texed is a demo version of Microsmith's TED text editor - and is particularly good for small documents and startup-sequences.DiskX is a good disk editor and very well programmed. Viewboot is another virus utility that enables you to look for new viruses in both the boot sector and memory. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Further information regarding the use of CLI-WIZARD. This programs operates very much like Utilmaster the makor difference being that there is just one directory window rather than two.To swap between source and destination disks just flick the switch on the lower part of the screen. It offers a similar range of commands to Utilmaster BUT also a range of commands that can be set by the user - I have included a few sample ones, more info on that a little later. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- INFO on standard commands.... ALL Select ALL the files (highlight) in the current directory, once highlighted the files can be moved/view/copied etc. CLEAR Deselct any highlighted files in the current directory. BYTE Calculates the total space occupied by the current highlighted files.Very useful for working out disk-space etc. ROOT Selects the first directory (the ROOT directory). PARENT When you are viewing the contents of a sub-directory (a draw) this command returns you to the previous directory. RUN Runs the selected program in the background. NOTE: you may have to look BEHIND CLI Wizard for the program! COPY Copies the current highlighted files to the destination selected - default is RAM: SINFO Gives amount of space available on current source disc. DINFO " " " " " " " destination disc. PAK This command will NOT function - Use CRUNCH! MOVE Like COPY but only moves the files and doesnt copy all information - excellent for moving lots of files from one directory to another on the SAME disc. RENAME Renames the current highlighted file to the destination filename. DELETEDIR Deletes the highlighted EMPTY directories. MAKEDIR Makes a directory as specified in the destination path. ASSIGNED Information as to what is assigned to what on the system. SHOW Shows the ILBM (IFF) picture files highlighted. PLAY We couldnt find a file to make this work! READ Shows the text contained in the highlighted file. EDIT Puts you into the text-ed and allows you to change and modify the file - Note TEXED is a limited demo version that allows files upto 6K maximum. PRINT Prints the highlighted files. ARC Compresses (ARC's) the files selected into an ARC file, for more information on ARC, type ARC ? at the CLI prompt. ARCLIST List all the files in a '.ARC' file. UNARC Remove all the files from an '.ARC' file. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- SPECIAL COMMANDS ADDED BY 17 BIT SOFTWARE It is possible to add your favourite CLI utilities and commands to CLIWIZ by editing the 'wizard.dat' file on this disk. Just load it into tex-ed and change the files as explained in the brief document that is also in that particular file. Examine the ones I have put in to see how it works. CONTROL This runs a program that enables you to do various things with the boot sector - such as writing NOFASTMEM to the boot sector and killing viruses.NOTE: As with other programs that run in the background, you will have to look for them BEHIND CLI Wizard. TEXTED Runs the text-editor. LUXBOOT This runs a very good boot-sector message writing program that allows you to create weird and wonderful boot sector messages although be warned! This could confuse some virus killers. SALVAGE This runs the excellent DISK SALVAGE program - you do need TWO DRIVES and put the source in df0: the destination in DF1: The destination must be a blank formatted disk. Disk salve rescues the disk from errors and corrupt files. FLOAD This runs the FASTLOAD program which gives the disk drive prority so things get loaded much quicker including dirs although the Amiga will not multi-task as well and the mouse is affected during disk-access. DDOCTOR Runs the discdoctor. INSTALL Runs the CLI command INSTALL. PREFS Brings up the preferences utility. CRUNCH! Runs the excellent compactor program that was featured on our third update - it crunches programs with a good saving on disc space and decompacts them on running. Note: It cannot crunch ALL files and may give 'BAD HUNC' which is normal. NEWBOOT Writes a boot sector to the disc that asks if any external drives and memory should be turned off enabling some software to operate normally on expanded systems. EXECUTE Executes the highlighted BATCH file. VIEWBOOT Runs the VIEWBOOT program for virus checking. VIRUS X Runs the Virus X program, read VIRUS DOC for more info. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- On this disc there are quite a few CLI commands these are.... DOSHELPER Excellent AmigaDOS HELP facility.Gives all syntax. Plus the following dos commands (so you can use the disc as a standard CLI disk if you wish). Type, Virus X, Stack, Show, Setmap, Less, Loadwb, Makedir, Killer, Newcli, Nfast, Protect, Run, Setclock, Arc, Assign, Big, Boot, Bootwriter, Boot_Control, Cd, Cls, Copy, Crunch, Delete, Discsalv, doctor, Ed, Endcli, Execute, Fastload, Gilbert, Info and Install. ENJOY - MASTER THAT CLI ! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Credits: Thanks to all third parties involved who actually WROTE the programs included, without their dedication to the Amiga disks such as this would be impossible to create.If you have any problems using this or any other disk do not hesitate to contact us at our address, which is... 17 BIT SOFTWARE PO BOX 97 WAKEFIELD WF1 1XX CALL: 0924 366982 (OFFICE HRS MON-SAT) New programs and contributions VERY welcome to the UKS LARGEST PD library, please get in touch with us >>>>> N O W <<<<< -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
