CheckCD 1.0 © Ricardo Martinez 1994
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have written this little program because I own an external CD-ROM drive
that is not always connected to my Amiga and I was bored of manually
mounting CD0: when I want to use my CD-ROM.
This program checks if a defined SCSI device is or not a CD-ROM drive
returning a return code that you can use in a script.
Script example:
;---------- cut ----------
CheckCD scsi.device UNIT 3
If NOT WARN
Mount CD0:
EndIf
;---------- cut ----------
It returns 0 (OK) if the device is a CD-ROM drive, 5 (WARN) if this is a
SCSI device but not a CD-ROM, and 20 (FAIL) in any other case.
Command template is "DEVICE,UNIT/N". DEVICE is the device name of your SCSI
controller and UNIT the unit number of the device you want to check.
CheckCD needs AmigaOS 2.04 or higher!!!
