- New Kernel CLI Commands
- =======================
-
- New options on the Copy command:
-
- N - Copy Newer. This copies only datestamped files, and if there
- is a file already at the destination then this examined before the
- transfer. The transfer only occurs if the source is newer than the
- destination. This is useful for updating large groups of files,
- of which only a few have changed.
-
- L - Copy and Look first. This looks at the destination before grabbing
- the first part of the object being copied. In large copy-Ns, where
- floppy-swapping is not involved, this can speed up the transfer dramatically.
-
- T - Copy sTructure. This copies only the directory tree of a large
- transfer.
-
- S - Copy and Stamp. This stamps all files copied with the current
- timestamp.
-
- New command *RMEnsure:
-
- Syntax: RMEnsure <module title> <version> [<action>]
-
- This command allows applications which rely on specific versions of modules
- to check easily that the module is loaded and has an adequate version. If
- the module of the given title is not present, or has a version number that
- is earlier than the given value, then the <action> is executed as a
- *-command, or an error generated if the action is not present.
-
- The version of each module can be read using *help modules. The syntax
- of the version number is: [<digit>]<digit>[.<digit>[<digit>]].
-
-
- *Quit now in kernel rather than in Debugger
