CLI COMMANDS: part 1
~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are many CLI commands out in the PD world. Most of them have
documents but they get lost in the constant copying (hint). So I`ll take
you through a couple of commands (not workbench commands, they are
explained in your manual)
Begginers: CLI commands can be copied onto your custom disk. Then you
name them in a file called the startup-sequence. They can then be used
when you use your disk. Puzzled? I will be writing more articles for you,
taken from my latest PD software creation `The begginers guide disk`.
COMMANDS:
BIG/BIGCLI
~~~~~~~~~~
This produces a maximum sized AmigaDos screen. To use in SS type BIG
or BIGCLI.
COLOUR/FUNKYCOLOURS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This command makes the AmigaDos fonts,border and header multi coloured.
Simply type COLOUR ? or FUNKYCOLOURS ? to find out how to use it.

~~~
This one clears all previous visible messages on the AmigaDos screen.

ECHO
~~~~
With this command you can show single line messages on the AmigaDos
screen as it starts up. To use type ECHO "MY MESSAGE".

you can use your font on the AmigaDos screen instead of the convensional
topaz. To use this in your startup type NEWTOPAZ MYFONT

your startup, simply type STARS.
