PCDisk Transfer Batch Files
Ok, short and sweet. Still having trouble remembering the proper
syntax to use when transferring files from the Amiga to the
BridgeCard?
Well then, beside this DOC file you should have:
READ.BAT (To read files from RAM: to C:\XYZ)
WRITE.BAT (To write files from C:\XYZ to RAM:)
Need more help? OK, both of these files belong on the BridgeCard
side somewhere in your DOS path. They MUST be able to find the AREAD
and AWRITE programs that came with your BridgeCard MS-DOS disks and
you MUST have PCDisk running on the Amiga. You say its not in your
StartUp-Sequence? For shame!
Since the two files are simple .BAT files, you can effect changes
as needed, but in these examples I am assuming the files you are
wanting to transfer are in RAM: on the Amiga side and you have a hard
drive C: with a sub-directory called XYZ on the PC side.
To use these .BAT files simply type READ or WRITE, a space, and
the program name you want to transfer. The "/b" option is use in each
case.
The example .BAT files will save you typing time and insure
correct syntax. And for those of you saying, "So what, I know how to
do that already", just remember, not everyone is at home in the PC DOS
world. Since I do all modem work on the Amiga side of things, simple,
helpful files like these are useful tools.
Enjoy! WIM'89
