Short: Small cli utility to clear RAM, but leave needed drawers and icons intact
Author: lightning@zen.co.uk
Uploader: lightning@zen.co.uk
Version: v1.1
Type: util/cli
Requires: "delete" command in search path
I found a nice little shell utility called "ClearRAM" on Aminet a few months
ago, designed to delete files from RAM:, leaving the drawers ENV: T: and ClipBoards intact...
...and it worked nicely, but caused stack overflow errors from time to
time, as well as not being able to deal with files without the "deletable"
bit set... so i wrote my own as a replacement... it's only a shell script,
not a full blow binary but it works, and since v1.1 (current version) can
deal with undeletable files without any problems (to my knowledge)...
This Version also leaves behind the icons for ENV:, T: and ClipBoards that i
use, as well as the RAM:disk.info
I'm uploading it as "LClearRAM" so as not to detract from the original file
from which i got the inspiration...
Hope you like it...
