ALIAS in AmigaDOS 1.3
« on: November 05, 2019, 03:57:43 AM »
I seem to recall the ALIAS command in AmigaDOS 1.3 and I see docs that reference it, yet it’s not in my 1.3 HD install on the A1000 or on any of the 1.3 Workbench disks I have. Did it not exist in 1.3??

I type ALIAS and get a Command Not Found. I put it in s/S-S and it errors out... Workbench 1.3 here. What gives?

Amiga 1000 w/ KS 1.3.

Right, but nowhere on any of my WB 1.3 disks do I see ALIAS in c/. So...what am I missing?

Ok, well I have a s-s that boots off of floppy and then hands things off (assigns SYS: etc.) to the SCSI HD and loads from there (can eject the boot WB disk) on my Amiga 1000. I've noticed nothing else amiss, but I definitely don't have ALIAS working. So what am I missing from s-s to make the shell-seg resident? Thanks.

Odd.
