Thanks Chris for the s-s! What's the 'al xxx = "xxxx" ' stuff? Still hoping to get a few more s-s' but would like some FLOPPY users to contribute. Would like to see how they are managing their WB/boot disks. – Roy Pahnke – Casper, Wyomin'

Roy, I didn't save the text but I think it is use of alias cmd… as in alias al alias al co copy etc Michael

Roy, The 'al xxx = "xxxx" ' stuff are aliases, my first alias creates an alias for itself alias = al, then I create additional aliases for CLI use. I'll recomment those lines for you. alias al = alias ;create alias for alias al av = avail ;alias for avail al avc = "avail chip" ;pretty self-explanatory don't you thing? al avf = "avail fast" al avff = "avail flush " ;flushing the ram not used al avt = "avail total" al bl = "blitzdisk2 200 dh0: dh1: df2: df0:" ;starting blitzdisk2, adding ;buffers and which drives get it al cp = "copy [] clone; ; this = copy [filename here] dxx: clone al d = dir ; used a lot so why not one letter for dir? AL DEL = "delete [] ASK" ; when I delete files in a directory, it asks OK? al dw = dirw ; invokes Dirw a dir command that gives a wide listing al diskcopy = "Diskcopy df0: to df2:" ; obvious isn't it? al dl = dloads: ; takes me to the assigned download directory al dcH0 = "diskchange dh0:" ; shortcut for diskchanges of different drives al dcH1 = "diskchange dh1:" ; and different partitions al DCH2 = "diskchange dh2:" al DCH3 = "diskchange dh3:" al DCHI = "diskchange dh2:" al dos = "runwsh ClickDOS_II" al format0 = "Format drive df0: name [] noicons" al format2 = "Format drive df2: name [] noicons" al LI = LIST al m = "rx ram:menu.rexx" ;this calls my rexx: script for my CLI menu al NewWsh = "newwsh con:10/10/520/50//c" al pcd = pushcd al pocd = popcd al psound = "runwsh dh1:perfectsound/Psound_3.1" al re = resi aL rea = reader al rw = runwsh al Send = "type > par: []" al sw = swapcd al st = status al ty = type al prs = "protect [] add s" al prd = "protect [] add d" al pre = "protect [] add e" al prp = "protect [] add p" al md = makedir al mid = MkDr al rn = rename al prefp = "runwsh dh2:prefs/preferences printer" al pref = "runwsh dh2:prefs/preferences" al v = "c:vtime" ;speaks time anytime I type a v and [return] in CLI al ch = "c:sound s:tag-sound v60 5" ; gives me a fun sound to play with al who = "c:sound c:Whosbad v40 5" ;speaks Whos BAD, whos bad who,…. So does that explain it enough ? Sorry I don't have any floppy drive

[continued] al md = makedir al mid = MkDr al rn = rename al prefp = "runwsh dh2:prefs/preferences printer" al pref = "runwsh dh2:prefs/preferences" al v = "c:vtime" ;speaks time anytime I type a v and [return] in CLI al ch = "c:sound s:tag-sound v60 5" ; gives me a fun sound to play with al who = "c:sound c:Whosbad v40 5" ;speaks Whos BAD, whos bad who,…. So does that explain it enough ? Sorry I don't have any floppy drive startup-sequences for you, I do have some somewhere, I never throw away a good script, you never know when you might have to run off of a floppy, I do have a backup floppy to get my system backup if the autoboot Cltd eprom loses its programming and needs to be refreshed, but all that does is pretty much duplicate what I already gave you. chris AT&G
