NAME

prodos - Manipulate Apple II ProDOS disk image files

SYNOPSIS

prodos IMAGE-FILE

DESCRIPTION

prodos provides a Unix/MS-DOS style command-line shell for manipulating the contents of a disk image file containing an Apple II ProDOS volume.

COMMANDS

cd PATH: Change the current directory on the ProDOS volume to PATH. Use lcd to change the directory on the native filesystem.
dir, ls, ll, or v: List the contents of the current directory on the ProDOS volume.
get FILE: Copy FILE from the ProDOS volume to the native filesystem.
lcd PATH: Change the current directory on the native filesystem to PATH. Use cd to change the directory on the ProDOS volume.
mkdir DIRECTORY: Create a new subdirectory on the ProDOS volume. You can use md as an alias to mkdir.
put FILE: Copy FILE from the native filesystem to the ProDOS volume.
pwd: List the name of the current directory on the ProDOS volume.
quit: Exit prodos.
type FILE: Display the contents of FILE, which should be a text file.
!: Start a subshell.

REQUIREMENTS

prodos requires Term::ReadLine, which is now distributed with Perl. For best results, you should also have Term::ReadLine::Perl, which is available on CPAN.

It also requires the modules AppleII::ProDOS and AppleII::Disk, which are included with LibA2.

ENVIRONMENT

 PAGER  The pager to use for long displays
 SHELL  The shell to start with the ! command

BUGS

prodos doesn't have a cat command, because under ProDOS that means dir and under Unix it means type. To avoid confusion, I left it out.
