- Utilities
- -----------
-
- Thsi directory contains three utility programs:
-
- Head - display the first lines of a file
-
- Du - display bytes/blocks used by a directory and all its
- sub-directories
-
- Cookie - print a wise (?) adage
-
- All the utilities in this draw were written to be as small as possible.
- Hence they offer little in the way of frills. However they do work and the
- executables are very small (All occupy less than one disk block!)
-
- NB: All three icons were primarily designed for use via the CLI or Shell.
- However they can be run via the workbench by using the IconX command (which
- must be in you c: directory). For all programs, click on the iconx script
- (eg du.iconx), then double click on the data file or directory (eg README).
- When using multiple selection be careful that the original directory icon
- is not selected.
-
- All programs require Arp.library version 39.0+ (ie that supplied with
- release 1.3 or above). If not present then the programs will exit cleanly
- but not all of them display an error message. If the program appears to do
- nothing then check that you have arp.library version 39.0+ in your libs
- directory.
-
- Double click on 'install-arp.iconx' icon to copy arp.library to your
- libs: directory.
