Short: Low memory join command replacement Author: Stuart Caie (Kyzer/CSG) Uploader: Stuart Caie (at a public terminal!) Type: util/batch Architecture: m68k-amigaos Join 1.1 by Kyzer/CSG Join is a simple shell command to join several files together into one larger file. It is designed to use as little memory as possible. It is 100% compatible with the CBM "Join" command, but also has a BUF argument, for specifying the buffer size (in bytes) to be used. Minimum size is 1024 byte and default is 20000 bytes. Join can be made resident. example of usage: join d1:1 d2:2 d3:3 d4:4 d5:5 d6:6 d7:7 as ram:odyssey.lha buf=9000 optimal buffer sizes include: reading from DH0: BUF=70000 (hard drives like big buffers) reading from DS0: BUF=15000 reading from 15k/s diskspare disk) reading from DF0: BUF=13000 (reading from 12k/s normal amiga disk) reading from PC0: BUF=9000 (reading from 8k/s DOS disk) reading from RAM: BUF=2000 (ram is very quick, but gets full quick) Enjoy! -Kyzer/CSG
