- DiskInfo v1.20
- by Gregg Giles
-
- DiskInfo is a tool which can be used to display information about any Amiga
- storage media, including disks, hard disks and memory. It is capable of
- creating global environmental variables which can be used by any AmigaDOS
- or ARexx script. It can be executed as an AmigaDOS command from either the
- Workbench or the Shell.
-
- The goal of this program is to evolve into worthy replacement for the
- Workbench "c:Info" command.
-
-
- Information is displayed in the following format:
-
- Name : Workbench2.0: Errors : 0 Bytes Blocks
- Status: Write Protected Full : 94.20 % Size: 857904 1758
- Type : Amiga OFS (DOS0) In Unit: 0 Used: 808128 1656
- Block : 488 bytes In Use : Yes Free: 49776 102
-
-
- These changes have been made to this program since the previous version:
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Recognition of new Amiga-specific file systems added: DOS2, DOS3, DOS4, and
- DOS5.
-
- Added Workbench 2.04 standard command line parsing which conforms to the
- "Amiga User Interface Style Guide". This had the effect of reducing code
- size, system overhead requirements, and permitting the display of a
- standardized template when issuing "DiskInfo ?" at the command line.
-
- Ability to create global environmental variables added. A user may now
- specify any of the following command line parameters (when using the SETENV
- parameter), and a corresponding variable will be created in the
- "ENV:DiskInfo" directory: BYTESPERBLOCK, DISKNAME, DISKSTATUS, DISKTYPE,
- ERRORS, FREEBLOCKS, FREEBYTES, INUNIT, INUSE, PERCENTFULL, SIZEBLOCKS,
- SIZEBYTES, USEDBLOCKS, and USEDBYTES. The argument ALL will prevent users
- from having to type all of the arguments in order to create all possible
- environmental variables.
-
- New argument: QUIET. This argument stops all output to the console, with
- the exception of error messages, the template, and the usage message.
-
- Compatible with Workbench 2.1 and 3.0.
