- To clear up the confusion, to remove an assign, made with the assign
- command such as AMOSPro_System: or a default assign such as C: or LIBS:,
- you simply type:
-
- Assign <VOLUME_NAME>
-
- e.g.
-
- Assign C:
-
-
- However, if you want from "remove" a real device, such as "DF0:", then you
- must use the DISMOUNT keyword e.g.
-
- Assign PAR: DISMOUNT
- Assign DF0: DISMOUNT
-
- Using the later assign, it is possible to fool some floppy drive only
- programs into using a hard drive directory (Simply reassign Df0: afterwards).
-
- NOTE: You can't remount some devices again afterwards, Df0: being an example.
-
- As for the REMOVE keyword for assign, I'm not sure, it may be a synonym for
- DISMOUNT under 1.3 - check the amiga dos manual.
-
- Also, under 2.04+, each program can use PROGDIR: for the directory it was
- run from. For interpreted AMOS programs, this is the directory AMOS was
- run from.
