AWNPipe comes with AWeb or follow this link .. http://web.ukonline.co.uk/awnpipe/bill/AWNP2.23.lha this is the Most recent public version. it also uses... 'rexxsupport.library' (to get the active screen name)and 'rexxtricks.library' (to save the settings to itself rather than env:) All these things are in the archive all you'll need if you don't already have it is SmartFileSystem ---------------------------------------- FormatSFS has all of these features.. 1. it uses SFSQuery to get a list of All SFS Partitions, (it's the best way i could find to eliminate other devices from the list) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2. it can call HDToolbox to set your RigidDiskBlock - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 3. Default volume name starts as 'Empty' or can be set to the Devices Name. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 4. a CheckBox gadget switches CaseSensitivity ON/OFF - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 5.

PS. if you find any minor/major bugs please let me know. DISCLAIMER: I will not accept any responsibility for loss of data , before FormatSFS executes the SFSFormat command it displays the command it's going to run so you should be OK :) ()_\ () / All the Best Bruce Steers .
