Short: Runs a script every time you insert a disk
Uploader: altomanipietro@pragmanet.it (Pietro Altomani)
Author: altomanipietro@pragmanet.it (Pietro Altomani)
Type: disk/misc
Version: 1.6
Requires: OS 2.0+
HotStartup 1.6 (26.08.97) Pietro Altomani
(third release)
This program checks all removable drives (you can specify which ones) and if
you insert a disk it runs the HotStartup-Sequence script which
has to stay in the S directory of the just inserted disk.
With it you can run programs just inserting their disks
in drives,without doing anything more !
Main features:
- fully configurable
- sample config included
- sample script included
- compatible with floppy,cd and other removable medias
- you've got to run ONCE the program to check EVERY drive.
- don't uses much memory
- don't slow down the computer
- totally free
- an installer/config tool will be available soon,tough the install/config operations are very
easy
- if you want it can ask the user before running scripts
- to stop it you have only to rerun it
Improvements from version 1.5:
- Very simplier config files: you have only to give the names of the drives to check !!!
- Now it works really with ALL removable media,while the past versions had some problems with
some rare controllers/devices.
- It can work under UAE
- It can chack also devices not directly connected to your computer,but on another one on a
network,also with Parnet style networks !
Future improvements:
- It will be able to launch a script also after disk removal.
