Asn(V1.0) ARPTOOLS Manual Asn(V1.0)
NAME
Asn - Perform logical device and environment var assigns
from a list file.
SYNOPSIS
Asn FILE
DESCRIPTION
Asn performs the assignments usually performed by the ASSIGN
SET and SETENV commands using a user-supplied list file.
If no FILE argument is specified, then the default file
DEVS:AssignList is used.
Asn allow the use of C-style comments like those of a
MountList file.
For logical devices the required syntax is similar to the
ASSIGN command: the logical device name (with a ':') must be
followed by the directory name it should be assigned to.
For variable names a prefix must be attached to the variable
name then the variable contents must follow.
A prefix is required to distinguish beetween Workbench 1.3
ENV: variables and ARP/Manx/Rockicki environment variables.
For ENV: variables use a 'E_' prefix, for Manx variables use
'M_' prefix (both without quotes).
Blanks, TABs, newlines and comments can be used to separate
names in the file.
Asn is useful for the startup file of hard disk users with
a great number of assigns to perform.
EXAMPLE
An assign list example file:
/* Assign List */
/* 1.3 Standard assigns */
CLIPS: RAM:Clipboards
ENV: RAM:Env
T: RAM:t
/* environment vars */
M_dateformat 3
E_editor sys:tools/e
/* end of file */
BUGS
