ARPTools v1.0
(c) 1989 by Fabio Rossetti
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
ARPTools is a group of small utility programs requiring ARP,
the AmigaDOS Resource Project v1.3 (*1) (the ASH shell
with Conman(*2) is not necessary but best suited to take full
advantage of all the programs' possibilities).
ARPTools contains both original programs by Fabio Rossetti
and both reworked and/or enhanced versions of other PD
programs. See the IMPORTANT file for details.
ARPTools programs have been created to address some
deficiencies of the ARP CLI environment, especially to
exploit the potential offerred by the non-named pipes
facility of the ASH shell, but also to improve scripts and
hard disk management. See the .man files in this distribution
for the documentation of every ARPTools program.
Every docs file in ARPTools assumes knowldege of ARP v1.3
Source docs also assume ARP programming knowldege.
Full source is provided for all ARPTools programs: to recompile
the source files Lattice C 5.0x (*3) is required, along with the
ARP programmer's include and object files.
All the ARPTools files are freely redistributable at these
conditions:
o In their present form, the files should be
redistributed all together.
o Source code can be modified and then redistributed
at will. However The author's name, and possibly a
list of the modifications, should be included in the
new version of the source code.
o ARPTools must be distributed for non-profit only.
o ARPTools executable and source files, in whatever
present or future form, cannot be used for any kind
of military uses.
Comments, critics and contributions are welcome.
