UNADF(1)

πŸ’– UNADF(1) β€” the Amiga Disk File extractor, bestie edition πŸ’–

okay so this is a page from the General Commands Manual and it's all about a lil command called unadf. it's a manual page, yes, but it's also your new bestie. let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

unadf β€” extract files from an Amiga Disk File dump. that's the whole vibe. it takes an ADF and it goes brrr and suddenly you have files ✨


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

unadf [options] the.adf [files] [-d extractdir]

literally that's the shape of it. options first, then the.adf, then optionally some files, and if you want, tack on -d extractdir at the end. she's flexible πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so this manual page documents briefly the unadf command. brief. short. like a little snack of documentation.

unadf is a program that extracts files from an Amiga Disk File dump. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it immaculately. no cap. 🌈


✨ OPTIONS ✨

here's the summary of options, and yes, we're going through every single one because skipping options is not the move πŸ’€

  • -l β€” lists root directory contents. just the root. the top level. the main characters πŸ‘‘
  • -r β€” lists directory tree contents. the whole tree. every branch. she's thorough 🌳
  • -c β€” use dircache data. heads up bestie: this one must be used with -l. no -l, no -c, that's the rule 🚨
  • -s β€” display entries logical block pointer. also must be used with -l. same deal. read the fine print, she's strict about it πŸ’…
  • -v n β€” mount volume #n instead of the default #0 volume. so if you're not feeling volume zero today, you have options 🎚️
  • -p β€” send extracted files to a pipe. the example they give is literally this:
unadf -p dump.adf Pics/pic1.gif | xv -

pipe it straight into xv - and let the magic happen πŸͺ„

  • -d dir β€” extract to the 'dir' directory. pick your destination, queen πŸ“
  • -h β€” show summary of options. the classic cry for help option. she's got you πŸ«‚
