RADLED
------
This is a small program that when run will flicker the Amiga's power
LED (light) as data is being read/written to/from the RAD: or VD0:.
This shows you the activity of RAD: or VD0:. That's all the program does!
Program usage:
run RADLED
And watch the power LED everytime you access RAD: or VD0:.
It is not advisable to run multiple copies of the program as it
intercepts all the system's IO operations. (It is written in assembly
so does not slow things down.)
To quit the program you have to send it a Control-C or a Control-D
by using the 'break' command. However if there is any program that
redirects IO (like TDebug) currently running that was started AFTER
RADLED, you should quit that program first and then RADLED.
If you don't you'll meet the guru. Sorry. Anyway, you won't want
to quit RADLED. (grin)
Note: Both RAD: or VD0: must be already active before you run
RADLED. (Or just one if you use only one.)
Program by: Khalid Aldoseri. CIS 75166,2531.
If you want versions for other devices, i.e. harddisks, floppies,
etc, just email me and I'll do one for you.
You can freely distribute this program as long as this doc file stays
with it and my name is not removed from you.
Comments, suggestion, complaints, bug reports, etc. are highly welcome.
