- The program included in this arc file is intended for the public domain and
- may be freely distributed as long as credit is given to the author and any
- others whose programs contributed to the success of this project.
-
- "Drive" is a program which is intended to provide the user with information
- about the disk drives available to the Amiga. To access the program you
- must be familiar with the CLI. To use the program type: Drive <drive_type>
- (i.e. Drive df0:, Drive dh1:, etc.). You may also just type Drive and you
- will be asked which drive you want information on.
-
- Included in the arc file are two reports, floppy_rpt and hard_rpt. These
- reports were obtained by using redirection such as "Drive > floppy_rpt df0:".
- In the reports you will notice two different numbers for total sectors. One
- number includes the boot blocks (2) and the other number does not. This is
- where the difference comes from.
-
- The program was written in Lattice C V5.0. To compile the program I used the
- following: lc -ciusrf -d0 -v -O -Lncd Drive.
-
- Lattice C V5.0 is a definite upgrade for those who have not yet obtained it.
- The source level debugger alone is worth the cost of the upgrade.
-
- Hope you find the program useful.
