- Note
- When a file is requested, the local cache directory is checked
- first to see if the file has been requested recently, if so it
- is sent from there. If the file is not in the local cache
- directory, an AmigaDOS command (LHA) is issued to de-archive the
- file from the specified archive and place it in the local cache
- directory as well as sending the file out.
-
- Also, this command is unique to AmigaNOS v2.9j +
