What's more annoying than listings with 8.3 ~ names like this on
amiga CD filesystems while we can use long names with Rockridge extension?:
ls CD2:Musiqu~1/Redhot~1
01-the~1.mp3 04-fun~1.mp3 07-mel~1.mp3 10-blo~1.mp3 13-apa~1.mp3 16-sir~1.mp3
02-ify~1.mp3 05-suc~1.mp3 08-the~1.mp3 11-und~1.mp3 14-the~1.mp3 17-the~1.mp3
03-bre~1.mp3 06-ico~1.mp3 09-giv~1.mp3 12-nak~1.mp3 15-myl~1.mp3
That's why I developped RumeoAndJoliet. Some programs I saw on aminet were not
satisfactory because of many reasons and the main one is that the way of renaming
files is different between a Win9x PC and Amiga CD file systems
(I tried 2 or 3 different ones)
I use this tool regularly and I'm very happy with it.
It's a Amiga script using some ports of Un*x/gnu/Minix commands as well as some
small C utilities that I had to code for better speed.
It's rather fast, and works really well.
Requirements:
- Access to a PC with Win9x and a CD-ROM drive
- A 3"5 double density (720K) floppy disk, PC formatted
- CrossDos installed on the amiga
- A CD-ROM drive installed on the amiga, with AmiCDROM, or another CD file system.
Installation:
Install Rumeo and all the binary tools in your path if you don't have them already.
On the PC, copy the script named LISTCD.BAT (you'll have to replace the
drive letter which is K: in the script by your CD-ROM drive letter)
Usage:
On the PC: insert the CD, the floppy disk, and execute LISTCD.BAT.
On the Amiga: insert the CD, the floppy disk, and then:
rumeo CDLIST/A,SOURCECD/A,DESTPATH/A,OUTFILE/K,INCLUDERE/K,EXCLUDERE/K
(set stack to at least 20000 bytes)
CDLIST: the file produced on a PC (ex: PC0:cdlist.txt)
SOURCECD: the path of the source CD (ex: CD0:)
DESTPATH: the path where the CD files are to be copied with the long name
OUTFILE: if specified, a script will be created, and you will be able to edit it
before executing it.
INCLUDERE/EXCLUDERE: allows you to include/exclude files by passing a regular
expression pattern.
This program demonstrates if still need the power of unix text utils combined
with AmigaShell. No need for csh or buggy ksh to perform this.
Enjoy and send your comments if you like this program.
