This archive contains seven utilities mostly for CLI which I've
gathered together under the umbrella of Funny Little Programs by
ANP (FLP_BY_ANP), including the fully commented source. They
are as follows...
----------------------------------------------------------------
AIO (All In One):
Usage: AIO <secs> <text>
This is a very unusual program in that it is a combination of
existing tools, all of which are useful in certain types of
script files. It can display a message, wait a specified time,
clear the screen and then return to the script.
Beep:
Usage: Beep
This is a nonsensical little program that "beeps" and flashes
the screen. Again, useful for script files.
CS (Clear Screen):
Usage: CS
Simply clears the screen by writing a "CONTROL L" character to
the CLI or Shell window.
Delay:
Usage: Delay <secs>
This little program simply goes away and waits the specified
time. Like WAIT but a lot simpler!
WaitReturn:
Usage: WaitReturn
Inspired by other similar programs, this is my own attempt at a
little program you can use in a script file to halt the progress
of the script until the user presses the RETURN key.
Rst (Reset):
Usage: Rst
A dinky little program that clears some memory vectors and then
Resets the computer.
WBRst (Workbench Reset):
Usage: WBRst
Like it's fellow Rst, it is a small rebooting program. Unlike
Rst, this one can be run and executed via the Workbench. Being
for Workbench users it also has a safety net if pressed
accidentally.
