- Short: Disk optimizer with DC-FFS support
- Type: disk/optim
- Uploader: kruse@cs.ucf.edu
- Author: kruse@cs.ucf.edu
-
- This is a new version of my disk optimizer ReOrg. It requires
- Kickstart 2.04 or higher and Workbench 2.04 or higher.
-
- ReOrg can be used to optimize (defragment) volumes in any floppy disk-like
- device, like trackdisk.device, ramdrive.device, hddisk.device and most
- third-party harddisks. This usually results in faster directories and can
- also result in faster file access, shorter boot times etc.
-
- In addition to optimizing a disk, ReOrg can also convert the filesystem
- of a disk during the optimization, e.g. from OFS to DC-FFS.
-
- Compared to most other disk optimizers ReOrg is quite fast and has many
- options to customize the optimization to your specific needs.
-
- ReOrg is shareware (US$ 10).
-
- Major new features since ReOrg 2.33:
-
- - support for directory-caching (DCFS: DOS\4, DOS\5).
- - support for blocksizes <> 512 bytes.
- - implemented filesystem conversion during optimization.
- - all windows and requesters are font-sensitive.
- - added option "Keep Locks" that allows you to continue your
- work after optimizing the boot partition without having to
- reboot the system.
- - improved directory optimization algorithm used under Kick2.0.
- Side effect: icons appear faster on Workbench.
- - localization (even when running under Workbench 2.04).
- - online help function using AmigaGuide.
- - numerous bug fixes and enhancements.
-
- Archive contents:
-
- - Commodore `Installer' and ReOrg installation script
- - ReOrg binary
- - catalogs and AmigaGuide documentation in english, danish, german and
- dutch

-
- IMPORTANT NOTE:
-
- ReOrg 3.1 is the ONLY official release after ReOrg 2.33. It has been
- reported to me that earlier beta versions of ReOrg (such as V2.39,
- V2.9b, V3.0b etc.) have been uploaded to some ftp sites and bulletin
- boards.
-
- If you are in doubt about the version you have, look into the
- "About ReOrg" requester. If the "Rev" number of your program is
- between 107 and 205 your copy is NOT an official release version.
-
- Do not use those earlier versions ! They are unofficial beta test
- versions and some of them are quite buggy and may destroy your
- harddisk. If you see ANY such version anywhere, please delete it or
- tell the operator of the board to remove it. Thank you !
