Short: NSD-aware Format command with source Author: Pavel Fedin Uploader: Pavel Fedin Type: disk/misc Version: 43.7 Architecture: ppc-morphos BH Format is intended to be a compatible replacement for Format under various operating systems of Amiga family with important additions: * It can perform low-level formats (or fake formats, as they usually are) on drives larger than 4 GB. * It will warn you if the device to be formatted is misconfigured or if your file-system or if your disk is too large for your current device driver or file-system to handle (only for m68k). * It allows you to specify file-system type (DosType) and device flags directly. This will be particularly useful in conjunction with firth- coming improvements to Francis Swift's XFS package. * It can create a default disk icon, following the same rules as the DefIcons program from NewIcons does. * It has a GUI (native MorphOS version lacks it), can be used as a module for ScalOS desktop. It currently lacks localisation, some error reporting code, and good documentation. However, full source code is included and licensed under the GNU GPL, so perhaps I can get some help with this... Please send bug reports, success reports, fixes and improvements to me. Pavel Fedin RUSSIA email: sonic_amiga@rambler.ru
