Recycler is a simple script file that you run from CLI or
your user-startup script during boot-up. It waits until a preset time,
and then performs standard AmigaDOS commands, or calls other programs
(assuming they can be called from the command line interface).
This is useful if you run a BBS (as I do) and your computer is
on all the time. By placing many times, you can have your files
backed up daily, or hourly, depending on your needs. Some BBS's do
not have a built in midmaint sequence, or if they do, it is limited
to BBS operations alone. Recycler will do anything within the limits
imposed normally by the CLI/SHELL.
Things you can do with Recycler:
- Play a sound sample hourly to simulate a clocks chimes. (see Chime.
script)
- Have the computer sound an alarm at a preset time to remind you of
an appointment or event for that day. Lunch, coffee break, doctors
appointment, take the dog for walkies, etc.
- Copy files to backup directories. (see example.script)
- Archive/move/erase/manipulate files.
- You can have your AmiTCP call the internet, download your mail, and
log off automatically at regular time periods if you are away on
vacation, or otherwise busy.
- Execute any valid AmigaDOS command(s) or call any CLI/SHELL program.
