- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.1. Drive Selection ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- The diskette drive for the format option is specified using the drop down list
- box located on the left of the format window. All diskette drives present on
- the system are listed; simply choose the device that should be used for the
- format operation.
-
-
- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1.2. Media Selection ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- The media selection drop down list box lists all available media types for the
- format operation. If the media for the drive has already been specified in the
- preferences dialog, that is set as the default. Otherwise, the media defaults
- to the device capacity.
-
- 2.88MB diskette drives are the exception to this rule, however. Since 2.88MB
- diskettes are scarce, unless the drive has already been specified as a 2.88MB
- device in the preferences setting, a 2.88MB drive will default to using 1.44MB
- media.

- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 3. Log/Catalog Viewer ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- Back Again/2 provides a combination log / archive catalog viewing utility for
- viewing and printing log and archive catalog files.
-
- The log files generated by Back Again/2 are ordinary text files and can be
- viewed or printed with the standard OS/2 editor and print commands. Archive
- catalogs, however, are binary files and are not normally readable. The
- log/catalog viewer makes it possible to look at archive catalogs, print them on
- any supported OS/2 printer, and even save them to a text file.
