AddBuffers 38.2
© 1997 by Stephan Rupprecht
All rights reserved.
COPYRIGHT AND DISCLAIMER
AddBuffers V38 is copyrighted 1997 by Stephan Rupprecht.
All rights reserved. This program is freeware, so no financial
donations required. Redistribution allowed if the package
is left unchanged. The author is not responsible for any
damage caused by the use or misuse of this documentation
and/or the program(s) it describes.
REQUIREMENTS
Any Amiga® (compatible) computer with at least OS2.04.
DESCRIPTION
AddBuffers V38 replaces the original AmigaDOS AddBuffers
V37 command from Commodore. This version supports pattern-
matching, so that you can add extra buffers to several
devices by just one call. If a device is not present, no
requester will come up (in opposite to the original one).
INSTALLATION AND START
To install it, simply copy AddBuffers to your C: directory.
Since it is cli command, you can only start it from a shell
process. The following options are provided:
DRIVE: the name(s) of the device(s) to add extra buffers to.
BUFFERS: number of buffers to add. Negative values will reduce
the current amount of buffers. If you don't specify
this option, the current buffer count is shown instead.
QUIET: no output (as AddBuffers >NIL:)
Examples:
AddBuffers df?: 20
Adds 20 buffers to all dfx: drives (df0:, df1:, ...)
AddBuffers (dh0:|df?:)
Shows the current buffer count of dh0:, df0:, dfx:, ...
AddBuffers #?
Shows the current buffer count of all device currently mounted.
THANK YOU

on his system (AddBuffers failed on 040/060 systems).
Rodney Norton for his suggestions
