DosMan from the CLI:
One of the most requested freatures for DosMan has
been for the ability to use it from the CLI.
Well, here it is. DosMan.rx is the answer.
It is quite easy to use. Here is what you do:
1. You must have REXXmast running. If you are using
pre-2.0 versions of the Workbench then you must have
AREXX installed on your system or update to Workbench 2.0
or higher.
2. Open the CLI.
3. Change directories to the DosMan directory. It is
important for the 'man' directory to be in the same
directory as DosMan.rx.
For instance, let's say that DosMan.rx is in the
'Work:DosMan' directory. In this case you should enter
'CD work:DosMan' to get to that directory.
4. Type 'rx DosMan.rx'.
For more information on the 'rx' command see DosMan.
5. Now, just follow the directions as they come onto
the screen.
Customising DosMan.rx
---------------------
Warning: Do this only if you are comfortable with
AREXX!
DosMan.rx is set up to print twenty lines of text at
a time. If this is too many or too few line for your CLI
then change the variable 'i'. I have the line clearly
marked in DosMan.rx. As I wrote it, 'i' is set to 20
(which is perfect for the size of my CLI). If you want
only 15 lines to print, change the 20 to 15.
