AutoMount V1.4 By: Khalid Aldoseri. AutoMount will automatically 'mount' all the entries in your 'DEVS:Mountlist' file. It will attempt to mount each device it sees in the mountlist file, except for the RES?: partitions. Also, if a device has already been mounted, AutoMount will not complain. The main reason for this program is to shorten your startup-sequence file. Usage: Just add a line to your startup-sequence called 'AutoMount'. Place 'AutoMount' in your c: directory. Make sure that you have the 'Mount' command in your directory. And then remove that long list of Mount's in your startup-sequence. (grin). AutoMount can also be used directly from the CLI. If you do not want a device to be automounted, add the following line to the mountlist "/* DO NOT AUTOMOUNT */" (without the quotes, and all in caps.) This line can be anywhere between the line with the '#' of the previous device and the name of the device you want to ignore. Example: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- SPEAK: Handler = L:Speak-Handler Stacksize = 6000 Priority = 5 GlobVec = -1 # /* DO NOT AUTOMOUNT */ AUX: Handler = L:Aux-Handler Stacksize = 1000 Priority = 5 # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- In this example, the AUX: device will not be mounted. If the device to be ignored is the first one in the list, just add the line before it. Another Method of using it is: AutoMount AUX: SPEAK: NEWCON: ....... This is faster than the normal mode. You just specify what you want to mount after the name of the program in CLI or in your startup-sequence. Version 1.4: Added floppy option. To use: AutoMount FLOPPY OR AutoMount FLOPPY AUX: SPEAK: FAST1: .... The 'Floppy' mode will speed up the program when booting from a floppy disk. AutoMount will do the following: - Initialize RAM Disk - copy 'Devs:Mountlist' to RAM: - copy 'C:Mount' to RAM: - Mount DEVICE FROM RAM:Mountlist This will normally increase mount speed by 50%. This will only work with the 1.3 Mount command, sorry! Comments, suggestions, complaints, etc. are welcome. Enjoy, Khalid Aldoseri, CIS 75166,2531 Dec 29, 1988.
