Short: Great Shell: Small, fast and powerful with CFN and review. Type: util/shell Uploader: uj3w@ibm3090.rz.uni-karlsruhe.de (Martin Gierich) Version: ZShell V2.2 (02.01.95) Authors: Paul Hayter & Martin Gierich Requirements: Just an Amiga For those who never read documents: Please read at least the small chapter in the documentation called "For Those Who Never Read The Whole Documentation". Some of the features: * Freeware, no payment required. * Usage is similar (or better) to the standard AmigaDOS shell. * Supports the standard housekeeping commands which are builtin, so no disk access is necessary. eg. list, dir, cd, rename, makedir, delete, copy, path, info, type * A total of 64 builtin commands. * About 26K small (pure assembler code, source included). * Starting from Workbench or CLI/Shell possible. * Filenamecompletion by simply pressing TAB. * Review-buffer to see what scrolled out of the window. * Command line editing better than KS2.0 . * Command and Function key aliasing. * DIR and LIST both sort (by default) and show filesize. * Simple 'MORE' type text viewer. * Some commands and features for debugging system/programs. * Online HELP function and AmigaGuide documentation with examples. * Has a kind of Memory-Clock with alarm. * Colourful output, can be reduced to one colour. Description: ZShell is a small (26K), fast and powerful SHELL with many (64) builtin commands. So it replaces most of the commands in the C: directory what effects in saving disk space and reducing disk accesses. There is no way around ZShell for those who do not have a harddisk or still have Kickstart 1.2/1.3 . But it is useful for those with a better Kickstart and/or harddisk, too, because for example it has powerful editing & history, filenamecompletion, review buffer and a lovely LIST, DIR and INFO command (very sensible ones !). I tried to made usage similar to the AmigaDOS Shell for easy using. Note: This is an update to Version 1.3 on the Fish Library Disk 537 from Paul Hayter. I (Martin) tried to ask him for permission to release this, but he has not answered. Because it is still Freeware and the original executable with documentation is included, I do not think that I am doing something nasty. ( In the original distribution there was the source code included but there was nothing stated about changing the source. )
