LoadLib(V1.3) ARP User's Manual LoadLib(V1.3)
NAME
LoadLib -- Explicitly load an Amiga library.
SYNOPSIS
LoadLib dev:dir/library-name
DESCRIPTION
This is a new command which is occasionally very useful. If
you should happen to boot from a disk that does not have
arp.library in its libs directory you will not be able to
use the ARP commands directly. This is an unusual
situation, but it can happen. LoadLib presents the solution
to this problem by allowing you to load the library directly
from whatever directory you want. After a successful
LoadLib of arp.library, you may use any ARP command you
like.
Note that you are not confined to loading arp.library, any
diskloadable library may be brought into memory in this way,
this can help a lot when your bootdisk gets too crowded.
EXAMPLE
Boot from a disk without arp.library on it, and then insert
your boot disk in drive 1, then type:
LoadLib df1:libs/arp.library
This will allow you to execute any ARP command. Note that
LoadLib cannot use arp.library, and therefore it is missing
some features, such as the advanced argument parsing, that
most ARP supplied commands have.
OTHER
This command was donated to ARP by William Hawes.
