- OscliD comes supplied with a load of "tools" you can use as normal
- *commands, of the type that you are likely to want to use from a remote
- computer. They come with C source for perusal; particularly common
- `good ideas' are to put Obey scripts in the !OscliD.Tools directory
- called "dialup" and "hangup". The tools require OSLib to be available
- via OS$Path to rebuild them.
-
- Here's an overview of the tools:
-
- osexit (executed simply by typing "*osexit" at the command-line or
- sending it as a roscli command) will quit the currently-running
- application, for example something that has crashed and is
- stopping the Wimp from polling
-
- reset resets the machine
-
- restart restarts OscliD
-
- mem tells you the amount of free memory you have
-
- kill will kill a running Wimp task. For example, "kill ShareFS" would
- kill ShareFS (if loaded)
-
- Obviously these commands can wreak havoc if not used properly, so always
- ensure that you've made your system secure (see "Security").
