MCSDIAG - version 1.1
This is a little Turbo Pascal program I developed (using some standard
routines presented in the Turbo Pascal manual) for use on computers we
install in our clients' offices. It's primary use is to alert the user
to a low disk space condition.
It does this by checking the remaining disk space on each installed hard
disk.
As disk space declines, the program produces stronger and stronger warnings
that space is becoming limited. At 1% free, it sounds an "alarm."
The program is intended for use in AUTOEXEC.BAT files.
It is smart enough to know whether it's on a COLOR or MDA system and
will respond accordingly. It also reports the version number of DOS
and the type of monitor card in use.
It is NOT smart enough to know how many disk drives there are. If you
use the command WITHOUT arguments, it will presume that there is only
one disk drive (C:) and report for it.
You may also use:
MCSDIAG 3 : to report C:
MCSDIAG 4 : to report C: and D:
MCSDIAG 5 : to report C:, D:, and E:
MCSDIAG 6 : to report C:, D:, E:, and F:
MCSDIAG 7 : to report C:, D:, E:, F:, and G:
MCSDIAG 8 : to report C:, D:, E:, F:, G:, and H:
The numbers 1 and 2 aren't used because they refer to FLOPPY disks.
