SHORT: Replacement for Info command, shows disk information
TYPE: Utility
DiskInfo v1.20
by Gregg Giles
DiskInfo is a tool which can be used to display information about any Amiga
storage media, including disks, hard disks and memory. It is capable of
creating global environmental variables which can be used by any AmigaDOS
or ARexx script. It can be executed as an AmigaDOS command from either the
Workbench or the Shell.
The goal of this program is to evolve into worthy replacement for the
Workbench "c:Info" command.
Information is displayed in the following format:
Name : Workbench2.0: Errors : 0 Bytes Blocks
Status: Write Protected Full : 94.20 % Size: 857904 1758
Type : Amiga OFS (DOS0) In Unit: 0 Used: 808128 1656
Block : 488 bytes In Use : Yes Free: 49776 102
These changes have been made to this program since the previous version:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recognition of new Amiga-specific file systems added: DOS2, DOS3, DOS4, and
DOS5.
Added Workbench 2.04 standard command line parsing which conforms to the
"Amiga User Interface Style Guide". This had the effect of reducing code
size, system overhead requirements, and permitting the display of a
standardized template when issuing "DiskInfo ?" at the command line.
Ability to create global environmental variables added. A user may now
specify any of the following command line parameters (when using the SETENV
parameter), and a corresponding variable will be created in the
"ENV:DiskInfo" directory: BYTESPERBLOCK, DISKNAME, DISKSTATUS, DISKTYPE,
ERRORS, FREEBLOCKS, FREEBYTES, INUNIT, INUSE, PERCENTFULL, SIZEBLOCKS,
SIZEBYTES, USEDBLOCKS, and USEDBYTES. The argument ALL will prevent users
from having to type all of the arguments in order to create all possible
environmental variables.
New argument: QUIET. This argument stops all output to the console, with
the exception of error messages, the template, and the usage message.
Compatible with Workbench 2.1 and 3.0.
