; AmigaDOS script "ld" by Kent Paul Dolan
;
; Accepts a single parameter, the pathname of the directory to be listed.
; Produces a sorted directory with as many columns as will fit in a full
; width (77 character wide) Amiga bordered window, such as the one for
; the AmigaShell or, here, the "less" file display utility, and displays
; it using the PD "less" utility. All work files are in "T:" and are
; deleted at the end of the script. The "column_set" program is a small
; PD Modula-2 utility written by the author of this script.
;
; Create a single column listing of the files in <pathname>
;
list > t:ld.1 {pathname} files lformat="%S"
;
; Add the directories to the listing, but flag them with a tag string to
; distinguish them from the files.
;
list >> t:ld.1 {pathname} dirs lformat="%S{dirtag}"
;
; Sort the lot together.
;
sort from t:ld.1 to t:ld.2
;
; Use my PD Modula-2 utility to rearrange the names into as many columns
; as will fit in a full sized window; "column_set" does one pass to
; size the file names looking for the longest name, and a second pass
; to create the output from the input. Input is a file with one file or
; directory name per line, output is the same set of names set in columns.
;
column_set -w {width} t:ld.2 t:ld.3
;
; Use the PD "less" utility to put up a window in which the directory
; names may be scrolled up and down; if you don't have "less", replace
; it here with "more", the standard AmigaDOS text file display routine.
;
less t:ld.3
;
; Clean up the work files.
;
delete t:ld.1 t:ld.2 t:ld.3
