- LoadLib(V1.3) ARP User's Manual LoadLib(V1.3)

- NAME
- LoadLib -- Explicitly load an Amiga library.
-
- SYNOPSIS
- LoadLib dev:dir/library-name
-
- DESCRIPTION
- This is a new command which is occasionally very useful. If
- you should happen to boot from a disk that does not have
- arp.library in its libs directory you will not be able to
- use the ARP commands directly. This is an unusual
- situation, but it can happen. LoadLib presents the solution
- to this problem by allowing you to load the library directly
- from whatever directory you want. After a successful
- LoadLib of arp.library, you may use any ARP command you
- like.
-
- Note that you are not confined to loading arp.library, any
- diskloadable library may be brought into memory in this way,
- this can help a lot when your bootdisk gets too crowded.
-
- EXAMPLE
- Boot from a disk without arp.library on it, and then insert
- your boot disk in drive 1, then type:
-
- LoadLib df1:libs/arp.library
-
- This will allow you to execute any ARP command. Note that
- LoadLib cannot use arp.library, and therefore it is missing
- some features, such as the advanced argument parsing, that
- most ARP supplied commands have.
-
- OTHER
- This command was donated to ARP by William Hawes.
