Message-ID: <880711124149.00000600.AAQT.AA@DGIHRZ01> (UMass-Mailer 4.03) Date: Mon, 11 Jul 88 12:41:49 CET From: Garry@DGIHRZ01 (Garry FH Fulda W.Germany) Subject: BootBlock Make - Docs To: FYS-MA@fintuvm Here are short descriptions for the three programs. The programs are all sent as SourceCode, BBM and WBSize are for Aztec C and BBAVNF is for Seka. Read the instructions and have *FUN*... (no, not with the instructions but with the programs). If a larger instruction or any explanations are needed, just contact me, I'll see what I can do. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BootBlock make -------------- This program will write a short Ass-program to the bootblock of a disk. Usage: BBM, Device [0,1,2,3], Filename [of prg to write] If you are using programs not created by the Seka-Assembler, add ',N' at the end. The program is entirely written in C using Aztec C, I never tried with Lattice 'cause im kind'a alergic against it's 'speed'... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BootBlockAntiVirus_and_NoFast ----------------------------- (BBAVNF) This is a BootBlock program written with the Seka assembler, should work with any other (but don't forget putting the ',N' at the end of the BBM-line!). This program will first do all the necessary stuff that has to be done when bootingfrom disk. It will then Allocate *ALL* FastMem. Starting with the 'EA'-Label the program will check for virus programms using different OS-vectors (CoolCapture...), which will find both the SCA and the ByteBandit Virus (and some others that may exist, especially the 'good' [what's the plural of virus ? viri ? viruses ?] viri as e.g. the 'Card'-Dev from KS/WB1.3) To remove the Virus, press the left MB, to keep it, press the right one. If you want to use the Antivirus without NoFast: just erase the part doing the NoFast. If you want to use the NoFast without Antivirus: Why ? O.K., just erase the other stuff starting with the label 'EA' until the last command before 'movem.l (a7)+...'. Don't forget to put the 'EA'-label infront of the movem ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WorkBenchSize ------------- This program will allow you to change the size of the Workbench Screen. Just start the program, select the drive the Disk is in, use the SizeGadget of the window to change the WBSize, then select the 'OK'-Button and the disk will have a new screensize. You can leave the program anytime by pressing the closegadget of any window. If the disk was writeprotected, no change is made... (really ?) If anyone is interested in changing that to a requester asking 'write again' - go ahead, but try to send me the changes. Maybe someone else wants to change it to make the changes of size take effect right away - OK with me, but, once again, I'd be happy if I could get the changes sent to me... WBSize is written with Aztec C, but should work with Lattice (did I tell you of my allergy against Lattice ?). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
