- QFORMAT Version 1.2 (c) Bernd Wetzel 1993
- QFORMAT is a little utility for OS/2 to format an already used
- disk within a second.
-
- Usage: QFRORMAT <drive> [options]
-
- drive: 'A:' or 'B:'
- options: /? Show this text
- /B Create a non-bootable disk
- /NF Do not format disk (can be used only with /B)
- /Y Force quick format (no prompt)
-
- Option /B creates a disk, which boots the computer automatically
- from the harddisk, even if such a disk is inserted in the disk drive.
- In addition you can specify /NF to make the diskette 'non-bootable', but
- do not format this disk (all data on the disk will still exist after
- this operation).
-
- Returncodes of QFORMAT.EXE (for using in batch files):
- 1 = Wrong parameters
- 2 = Canceled by user
- 3 = Error while formatting
