Short: BEST wildcards for commands + Listing utility V1.3 Author: rodrigue@iles.siera.ups-tlse.fr (Frédéric RODRIGUES) Uploader: rodrigue@iles.siera.ups-tlse.fr (Frédéric RODRIGUES) Type: util/dir Replaces: util/cli/All* Requires: kickstart 2.0+ All 1.3 (9-4-97) © Frédéric RODRIGUES Give wildcards and multiple arguments to commands + Listing utility SUMMARY ~~~~~~~ OVERVIEW WHAT IT IS SYNOPSYS OPTIONS COMMAND OPTION USAGE TYPES CTRL-C BREAK HANDLING ALL AND ADDBUFFERS *=#? WHAT YOU HAVE ON THE REGISTERED VERSION LEGAL STUFF HOW TO REACH ME ? OVERVIEW ~~~~~~~~ Have you ever dreamed : - to do (like PC's): 1> rename *.bak *.tmp (with your AmigaDos Rename) ? - to execute commands on files you choose in just one command ? - to select files whose size is beetween a range ? - to view the type of the files you list ? - to execute a particular command on particular files (ex: 1> showiff * type ILBM) ? - to give the ability to all your commands to handle wildcards and multiple arguments ? WHAT IT IS ~~~~~~~~~~ All is a Listing utility like AmigaDos List command (better than the last). All is also a ForEach utility like unix for (better too). All exists in two versions : freeware and shareware (just 5 boxes). SYNOPSYS ~~~~~~~~ All [COM] [command string] [SIZEMIN] [number] [SIZEMAX] [number] [DATEMIN] [datemin] [DATEMAX] [datemax] [TYPEPATTERN] [type pattern of files] [DO] [ALL] (see : 1> All ?) OPTIONS ~~~~~~~ FILES/M/A - an infinite number of files and wildcards ex: *.doc *.?ak myfile this.#? th[a-z]t *[a|b|c|%]d COM=COMMAND/K - give the command string with the % parts you want to apply on some files; works also as a switch : if you don't specify it you will access to the list function else the execute function ex: com "rename %a %pfile%e" SIZEMIN/N/K - give the minimum size the files must have SIZEMAX/N/K - give the maximum size the files must have DATEMIN/K - give the minimum date the files must be DATEMAX/K - give the maximum date the files must be TYPE=TYPEPATTERN/N/K - give the type pattern the files must be (very usefull : with this you can choose the types of files) ex: type 8SVX|ILBM|ANIM, type XPK#? DO/S - execute the command string (see COMMAND) ALL/S - recursive mode on directories COMMAND OPTION ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It's the most important part. % parts: - %a - the filename with path (ex: ram:env/sys/input.prefs) - %f - only the filename (ex: input.prefs) - %v - the volume (ex: ram:) - %p - only the path (ex: env/sys/) - %m - the main part (ex: input) - %e - the extension part (ex: .prefs) USAGE ~~~~~ Examples of usage : 1> All RAM:env/* COMMAND "Copy %a DF0:tmp/%p%m.tmp*nDelete %a" $VER: All 1.3 (9-4-97) © Frédéric RODRIGUES - registered Give wildcards and multiple arguments to commands + Listing utility Copy RAM:env/All.prefs DF0:tmp/env/All.tmp Delete RAM:env/All.prefs Copy RAM:env/xData.prefs DF0:tmp/env/xData.tmp Delete RAM:env/xData.prefs 1> All RAM:* COM "Delete %a" DO $VER: All 1.3 (9-4-97) © Frédéric RODRIGUES - registered Give wildcards and multiple arguments to commands + Listing utility RAM:All.doc Deleted RAM:All.e Deleted RAM:All.prefs Deleted RAM:AllAddType Deleted RAM:AllAddType.e Deleted RAM:AllGetType.e Deleted RAM:AllMakePrefs Deleted 1> All RAM: ALL $VER: All 1.3 (9-4-97) © Frédéric RODRIGUES - registered Give wildcards and multiple arguments to commands + Listing utility RAM:type.8SVX 8SVX 20 ---rwed Today 23:37:07 comment: sound data RAM:type.AMOS AMOS 20 ---rwed Today 23:37:51 amos program RAM:type.exe OS EXE 20 ---rwed Today 22:38:59 RAM:type.ILBM ILBM 20 ---rwed Today 22:38:59 picture RAM:type.info OS INFO 20 ---rwed Today 22:38:59 RAM:type.lha LHA LH5 20 ---rwed Today 22:38:59 RAM:type.mod PT-ST 20 ---rwed Today 22:38:59 RAM:type.PP20 PP DATA 20 ---rwed Today 22:38:59 RAM:type.xpk XPK NUKE 20 ---rwed Today 23:36:27 RAM:type.epu2 EPU 850 ---rwed Tomorrow 00:37:07 RAM:env/sys/printer.prefs PREF 98 ---rwed Today 22:32:02 RAM:env/sys/input.prefs PREF 78 ---rwed Today 22:32:02 RAM:env/sys/icontrol.prefs PREF 62 ---rwed Today 22:32:02 RAM:env/sys/keyboard UNKNOWN 2 ---rwed Today 22:32:02 RAM:env/sys/wbconfig.prefs PREF 54 ---rwed Today 22:32:02 RAM:env/sys/printergfx.prefs PREF 72 ---rwed Today 22:32:02 16 files - 1396 bytes listed - 0 bytes free 1> All RAM: ALL TYPEPATTERN EPU|PREF $VER: All 1.3 (9-4-97) © Frédéric RODRIGUES - registered Give wildcards and multiple arguments to commands + Listing utility RAM:type.epu2 EPU 850 ---rwed Tomorrow 00:37:07 RAM:env/sys/printer.prefs PREF 98 ---rwed Today 22:32:02 RAM:env/sys/input.prefs PREF 78 ---rwed Today 22:32:02 RAM:env/sys/icontrol.prefs PREF 62 ---rwed Today 22:32:02 RAM:env/sys/wbconfig.prefs PREF 54 ---rwed Today 22:32:02 RAM:env/sys/printergfx.prefs PREF 72 ---rwed Today 22:32:02 6 files - 1214 bytes listed - 0 bytes free 1> All DF0:* RAM:s/* $VER: All 1.3 (9-4-97) © Frédéric RODRIGUES - registered Give wildcards and multiple arguments to commands + Listing utility DF0:DirectoryOpus.CLA UNKNOWN 2513 ---rw-d 01-Jul-94 16:59:28 DF0:installer UNKNOWN 265 s--rw-d 05-Mar-97 22:36:29 DF0:sauver UNKNOWN 43 s--rw-d 05-Mar-97 23:35:29 3 files - 2821 bytes listed - 7680 bytes free RAM:s/move UNKNOWN 143 s--rwed Today 01:01:13 RAM:s/mount UNKNOWN 54 s--rwed Today 01:01:13 2 files - 197 bytes listed - 0 bytes free TYPES ~~~~~ All works with a preferences file where to place the type recognition. I made this because I would give the possibility to add your own types or the new types you'll discover. You do this with the AllAddType command but just the registered users have it. So register if you want to have all options. At the moment you have the following types : - XPK MASH - XPK RAKE - XPK RDCN - XPK RLEN - XPK SMPL - XPK SQSH - XPK CYB2 - XPK NUKE - XPK SHRI - XPK DLTA - XPK DUKE - XPK ENCO - XPK FAST - XPK FEAL - XPK IDEA - XPK Data (the others) - GIF - PowerPacked DATA - AMOS program - AMOS bank - AMOS sprite - AmigaOS Executable - AmigaOS info file - AmigaOS font file - AmigaOS compugraphic font file - AmigaOS postscript font file - AmigaOS .metric file - AmigaOS 1.2 .info file - epu - ProTracker-SoundTracker - Octamed0 - Octamed1 - Bootblock.brainfile - PC Executable - Amigaguide - 8SVX (sampled sound) - ILBM (picture format) - PREF - ANIM - ARC file - MPEG - Unix GZIP - Pagestream document - PCX (picture format) - PKZIP - Sonix song - Prowrite document - Imagine object - Imagine picture - GPFax file - Flow outline - FinalCopy document - Cando variable - Cando deck - FORM (the others) - LHA LH0 - LHA LH4 - LHA LH5 - LZ - Maxiplan document - Page Setter document But you can have more (the unregistered user) : if you mail me 3 files by type I will add it in the prefs file on a new version for free ! CTRL-C BREAK HANDLING ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You can stop All by pressing CTRL-C. If the command in the command string (see COMMAND option) accept a CTRL-C to break, you break this first. Another CTRL-C will break All. So be prepared to press several times the CTRL-C to stop the whole. ALL AND ADDBUFFERS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You can speed up the listing by using : 1> Addbuffers df0: 50 (for example) You can have a lot more speed if you don't use type recognition. Try: 1> All DF0: ALL COM "%a" *=#? ~~~~ Sorry but I removed the built-in *=#? because it's better programming. In fact kickstart 2.0 permits to do that. So now I include the StarClick utility by Chris Hames. WHAT YOU HAVE ON THE REGISTERED VERSION ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - the registered version is much faster - you have AllAddType command : to add new types on the prefs file - you have the TYPEPATTERN option working - you have all % parts working LEGAL STUFF ~~~~~~~~~~~ All is freeware. You can get the registered version by sending me 5$ (american) cash and your email address. If you don't have an email address, add 2$ and I will send it by mail on a floppy. You can send me your local money after conversion from american dollars and you can use the money order at your convenience. You can distribute the package but don't modify it (in any form).
