-
- Utilities From Disk Editor to Undelete
-
- The devTOOL utilities form a useful completement to those available with OS-9.
- Many of them are based on ideas and methods which work well on other operating
- systems. The devTOOL package contains a set of practical utility programs for
- system development and application programming. It has over 90 useful utilities.
- The devTOOL utility package is designed to run on every OS-9 system. Its
- features include a complete set of WILDCARD file manipulating utilities, a
- disk sector editor and other functions which are useful for service and system
- maintenance. The following sections are included :
-
- System Utilities System Analyze Tools System Maintenance and Service
- Text File Processing Text File Output Routines Programming Aids
- System Software File Maintenance Utilities C-Libraries
-
- All utilities will run without any additional support files (except OS-9
- TERMCAP is neccessary for some tools) . No installation is required
- ('plug-n-play' software). The software package has to be copied into a
- directory on your hard disk and is ready-to-go. All of the devTOOL package
- utilities provide a convenient user interface and a quick reference on using
- the "-?" command line option. As an extension to standard help, an extra
- "Example" section has been added to the objects help area.

- OS9MAX SOFTWARE TO MANAGE OS-9 DISKS FROM MS-DOS
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
-
- PRODUCT INFORMATION
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- OS9MAX is a unique software solution to handle OS-9 disks on MS-DOS PC. The
- software allows any read, write, and format operation on single-, double-, and
- high-density diskettes. Custom versions for PCMCIA chipcards, media imagefiles
- and hard disks are available on demand. Your can transfer text and binary
- files from the floppy disk drive to the PC hard disk and vice versa with full
- path name as you know it from MS-DOS and OS-9. The program can be completely
- 'remote controlled' via its command line or by means of an ascii command file,
- which contains the program command list. OS9MAX allows automatic format detect
- and manual setting of all physical disk parameters (tracks, sectors, sector
- offset, track offset, sector size, block size, format headcode, double
- stepping, density,.. ). After detection or manual specification of the disk
- format parameter, you can add the format to the internal format list with a
- single command. OS9MAX allows any PC to transfer OS-9 diskettes via modem and
- telephone line. The reproduction or duplication of OS-9 media is supported.
-
- COMMAND SURVEY

- dm0, dh0, d0, dx0...). The "auto" command is provided to detect formats which
- are not predefined. OS9MAX will detect really every double- or high- density
- format. A 'user-defined-format' option is provided. OS9MAX is highly parameter
- driven, every format paramter is adjustable by the user. The disk format
- descriptors can be saved as ASCII files.
-
- INSTALLATION HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- "Plug and Play"-software. No installation is required. You only have to copy
- the program to your hard disk. System requirements are a AT class PC or Laptop

- SPECIAL FORMATS & HARDWARE
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- If you receive the demonstration version of OS9MAX and you will not be able to
- read the desired diskettes, please give us a call or fax. We will incorporate
- this special format into our software as soon as possible. We have many more
- solutions available than listed in this information.
-
- The OS9MAX software supports special diskette drives and controllers to handle
- Japanese media formats with FM recording. OS9MAXMC supports external PCMCIA
- drives.
-
- If you have the media with OS-9 data - we make the media readable from DOS !
-
-
- CUSTOMIZING
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- What we need is only a OS-9 disk for testing purposes which has already been
- formatted on your OS-9 system. Please write some files and directories to the
- media after formatting: this will allow extensive testing over the entire
- media.
-
- SAMPLE PROGRAM SESSION HOW TO START
- ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
-
- *** Note: the demonstration does not reflect the SAA style desktop of OS9MAX
- because demo starts with '/m0' option (TTY = non SAA mode).
-
- 1. Start OS9MAX
- 2. List directory of OS-9 media
- 3. Terminate OS9MAX
-
- Insert OS-9 media into the selected drive, the start the program by typing at
- the MS-DOS prompt:
-
- ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
