- --AMIGADOS GUIDE V2.0--
- ASSIGN
-
-
- USE:
- Assign's primary use is to Assign logical directories to the system and
- under AmigaDOS any directory or path can be made equivalent to a logical
- device.
-
- So for instance if you had a directory called Pictures located in HD1:
- Software/PPaint/Pictures it would take you quite a while to find it.
- But with the Assign command you can cut out the middle men and open the
- Pictures drawer straight away.
-
- PATH:
- C:
-
- SYSTEM:
- 2.0 (enhanced), 2.1, 3.0
-
- EXAMPLES:
- 1>ASSIGN (default)
- 1>ASSIGN GAMES: HD1:Entertainment/Games
-
- NOTES:
- The Assign command can be divided into three separate areas: Volumes,
- Directories, Devices.
- -Volumes are the names of mounted disks which have been labelled or
- inserted into the machine.
-
- -Directories are basically there to divide all of the different files up
- and place them together according to the nature of that file.
- (e.g a pictures directory would amazingly contain picture files)
-
- -Devices defines the different storage systems or read only devices
- connected to your system
