This appendix contains the AmigaDOS commands contained in the C: direc tory and internal to Kickstart 2.0. I've also included the SetPatch command, which will undoubtedly be added to C: as Commodore patches some of the bugs in Kickstart.

Addbuffers Function: Add 512-byte memory buffers to a disk device.

Template: DRIVE/A,BUFFERS/A DRIVE/A is the name of the disk device to which you are adding buffers. BUFFERS/A is the number of 512-byte buffers to add to the disk. A negative number subtracts buffers, returning the memory to the system.

Alias Function: Creates an alternate name for a command and lists all current aliases (the default). Template: NAME,STRING/F

NAME is the label you use on the command line to refer to the STRING/F.

STRING/F is the name and arguments of an AmigaDOS command.

Ask Function: Get a Y or an N response from the user of a command script. N or a carriage return sets a return code of 0; Y sets a WARN.
