Overview
-----------------------------------------------------------------
This directory contains the following files:
- ReadMe (this file)
- ReadMe.info (icon)
- DMakefile (makefile for Aztec C)
- InfoQ.c (source code)
- InfoQ (executable)
To use
InfoQ
you have to work with:
- one Amiga running under at least AmigaOS 2.04.
Description
-----------------------------------------------------------------
InfoQ
is a replacement for the original AmigaDOS 'info' command.
You can select if you want only information about disks or
volumes or even selected devices. Another advantage is that the
columns 'size' and 'used' are printed no longer in blocks, but in
KBytes or MBytes, so you don't have to know how long a block
actually is on a specific device. For volumes the creation date
is printed additionally.
Start from Shell
-----------------------------------------------------------------
You can start
InfoQ
only from shell, since it a DOS command
(except for the possibility to start it from Workbench through
the menu item 'Execute Command...').
The format is »InfoQ DISKS/S,VOLS=VOLUMES/S,DEVICES/M«. Each
parameter is optional. If you don't give any parameter, you'll
get full information. If you provide one or more device names
like DF0: you will get only information for that one(s). If you
invoke
InfoQ
with the keywords VOLUMES or DEVICES, you'll only
get information from these ones. The keyword VOLS is only an
abbreviation for VOLUMES.
