A2osX ADM Update Help
|
||
BL
|
||
The adm update command allows you to update your current A2osX installation
|
||
to the latest build. This command requires a properly installed, configured
|
||
and running network infastructure. Update will test that the update.a2osx.net
|
||
server can be reached. Update will then compare the currently running version
|
||
with the latest version available on the update server.
|
||
BL
|
||
The update process will install new system files, bins and even an updated
|
||
version of ProDOS FX. It will not change files in user home directories
|
||
or configuration files stored in ./etc (other then updated the version file
|
||
itself).

A2osX Edit Help
|
||
BL
|
||
The edit command allows the user to interactively read and edit standard text
|
||
files in A2osX. If you do not specify a file name on the command line, you
|
||
will be prompted to enter one when you save your work (control-S). Consult
|
||
the help screen below for a list of the special keys that can be used while
|
||
editing a file.
|
||
BL
|
||
A note for the touch typists!: While edit is not a word processor, it still is
|
||
one of the most complex programs included in A2osX. It does a lot! A side
|
||
affect of this, and due to the lack of a keyboard buffer in the Apple //e, if
|
||
you try to speed type while using EDIT some keystrokes may be dropped. This
|
||
is most noticeable when using the AppleWin emulator set to 1.0 speed.
|
||
Changing the emulator speed to at least 2.0 will significantly reduce or
|
||
eliminate the dropped keys.

A2osX Shell CD Command Help
|
||
BL
|
||
cd <value>
|
||
BL
|
||
The cd command is used to change the current working directory. You must
|
||
supply the cd command a valid relative or absolute path. Examples of
|
||
relative paths include subdir1 (a sub-directory in the current directory),
|
||
../subdir2 (a sub-directory in the parent of the current directory), and
|
||
subdir1/subdir3 ( a sub-directory in the sub-directory subdir1 of the current
|
||
directory). An absolute path always begins with a / and includes the volume
|
||
name of the disk drive to which change the current working directory such as
|
||
/MYVOL1/var/logs (the sub-directory logs in the directory var on the disk
|
||
with a volume label of MYVOL1).
|
||
PAGE
|
||
You can use the pwd command to display the current working directory if your
|
||
prompt ($) does not automatically display it on the command line (the default,
|
||
set in your PROFILE). The current working directory is used by the shell to
|
||
look for scripts not located in one of the directories specified by $PATH or
|
||
as the directory for reading and writing files when no path is provided by a
|
||
command. For example, if you execute the ls command without arguments, ls
|
||
assumes to list the files in the current working directory. Similarly, if
|
||
you specify a file without a path, for example the command echo Hello >
|
||
outfile, shell will place the file outfile in the current working directory.
|
||
See the related popd and pushd commands.
