- NAME
- LOADWB : To start Workbench
-
- SYNOPSIS
- LOADWB [DELAY] [-DEBUG]
-
- TEMPLATE
- LOADWB "DELAY/S,-DEBUG/S"
-
- PATH
- C:
-
- DESCRIPTION
- LOADWB starts the Workbench. This is done one time only, and
- usually in the Startup-sequence script file. The PATH variable of the
- launching CLI/SHELL is saved so that any CLI/SHELL started from the
- Workbench will have their PATH set to that value.
-
- OPTIONS
- DELAY : when specified, LOADWB waits for 3 seconds before exiting.
- This is to allow disk activity to stop before execution
- continues.
-
- -DEBUG : adds the DEBUG menu to the Workbench. This menu has 2 items:
- DEBUG and FlushLibs. The DEBUG item breaks the user into
- ROMWACK (the Amiga's ROM-resident debugger.) This requires a
- 9600 baud serial terminal attached to the serial port to be
- used. The FlushLibs items causes the Workbench to attempt to
- allocate as much memory as possible, so that any libraries,
- devices, fonts... resident in memory but not currently in use
- will be expunged.
- The DELAY and -DEBUG switch are mutually exclusive,
-
- SEE ALSO
- NEWSHELL, NEWCLI, PATH.
-

- or CLI:
-
- echo "A2000 Workbench 1.3 F V34.34"
- failat 30
