What is FCD?
FCD stands for FastChangeDirectory and might be a useable replacement for the
original CD. So if you want to change to a dir lying in the deepest jungle of
your HD f.e. bla/hi/jo/here/is/right. With FCD you only write: FCD right.
Nice eh?
How to use FCD?
FCD needs Kick2.0. So if you don't have - upgrade!
If you use FCD the first time you need to create a file where FCD puts all
existing dirs and subdirs of one device in.
So write first: FCD create <device>
f.e.: FCD create dh1:
FCD creates now the file fcd.file on dh1:.
If you want to change now to a directory on dh1: change to dh1: and easiely
write: FCD <dir>. FCD will change now to <dir> which will be found
first. Writing FCD <dir> one more time with the same parameter causes
a turnaround of directories with the same name.
If you need wildcards you can use #?. FCD handles <dir>#? quite well.
FCD provides the SHOW-option which you can use if you want to know all matching
dirs. You can write f.e.: FCD SHOW lib#?.
FCD was written using Commos A1200 and Amiga_E v2.1b provided by
Wouter van Oortmerssen. Thanks for that great compiler.
