		     The Auto Script Executer For DMS
		     ================================

Instructions
------------


	This program was written in less than an hour when I got fed up with
continually typing the same old garbage to DMS a number of disks with similar
names. It is by no means a perfect solution to the problem but it does allow
you greater multi-tasking flexibility and more importantly to compress disks
using everyones favourite disk shrinker.
	This program is especially of use to MODEM users the world over, I
hope it releaves some of the tedium of DMSing disks.

	To use this program a number of points need to be followed :

1 - Before you begin you will need a text editor, anything will do ( Yes
    even Ed ), but you should ensure that the editor has cut and paste.

2 - DMS and the script file should be placed into a device other than DF0.

3 - This is only really of use to Hard Disk Owners.

Where Do I place DMS, the script and DMSScript ?
------------------------------------------------

	As I stated above DMS and the script should not be placed on DF0.
The ideal place to put DMS and the script is in RAM because this is by far
the fastest device on the AMIGA, if you want DMS could be put in the C
directory of your hard disk, but the script should still be placed in RAM.

The CLI Parameters
------------------


	USAGE :   DMSScript   DMS_Command_Name   Name_Of_Script

N.B - quotes are not allowed.

	The Name_Of_Script should include all relevant path information and
extension (if any).

	The DMS_Command_Name is a command that you want to pass to DMS e.g

READ   - this will compress a disk into a file name
WRITE  - this will decompress a file name into a disk

	Any legal DMS command can be placed here but it must be a single
word.

	The Script is created using the text editor we discussed earlier,
Every time a carriage return is reached DMS will be used. For instance if
your script was saved to RAM:SCRIPT and looked like this :

DH0:Example_1
DH0:Example_2
DH0:Example_3

	and you typed at the CLI :

DMSScript READ RAM:SCRIPT

	Then you would first be asked to remove the disk in DF0 ( if one
is present ). Then you would be asked to insert a disk, DMSScript will tell
you that the ARCHIVE NAME is DH0:Example_1. Once you place the disk in the
drive DMS will be loaded and will crunch the disk in DF0 saving it as
DH0:Example_1. When it has finished you will be asked to remove the disk and
insert the next one.

	That is all there is to it, please note that you can also place a
number of parameters for DMS after the file name in the script as long as
they are on the same line. The FROM & TO commands should not be used to try
and change the device from DF0 as this won't help one bit.
