Utilities/!Attribute/!Help
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

!Attribute is a filing system utility.
(Current version has only been tested on ADFS)
The best way to learn to use this utility is to read
the following instructions while using the program.
You may also find it usefull to activate the !Help
utility as well.
INSTRUCTIONS.
If !Attribute is not currently active,
please activate it now.
On activation, a new icon should appear on the
left of the icon bar.
Click SELECT on this icon the create a new file.
(This, in fact, opens an attribute window onto the
file called 'New_file' inside the !Attribute
directory)
(You may find it usefull to update the attributes
of this file to suit your own requirements of a
default new file)
Drag a file or directory icon from a directory
viewer to the attribute icon (OR to an attribute
window) to view its attributes.
The attribute window that appears in response to a
file being dragged or SELECT being clicked is
divided into several sections:
(It would be usefull to open an attribute
window to full size here.)
Left half
top: This section shows the size of the object,
click SELECT on one of the arrows to adjust
the size to the required number of
M/K/Bytes. The actual file size will only
be altered if the Update icon above the
arrows is SELECTed.
bottom: This section shows the objects access
status. Click SELECT to toggle one of the
items. This section has a similar format
to that of 'access' on the filer menus.
Again, the access status will only be
updated if Update is SELECTed.
Right half
Note that 'file type','date stamp','exec,load
addresses' are all inter-linked, thus altering one
of them will result in one of the others being
altered. Warnings will be given if an alteration
has nasty side-effects.
top: This section shows the file type and the
file's icon. The middle of the three boxes
here shows the file type in hex format, you
may SELECT this to enter a new type.
The icon and the file types text format
will be updated if RETURN is pressed.
SELECT Update to write this new type to the
file. See 'Icon' later for use of the file
icon.
next: This section shows the files entire
pathname. SELECT the left or right pointing
arrows to view the section of the pathname
in that direction.
next: This section shows the files current date
stamp. SELECT Update to rewrite this to the
current date/time.
bottom: This section shows the files Execute and
Load addresses. SELECT one of the text
boxes to enter a new address. SELECT Update
to write this new address to the file.
Icon:
Drag this icon to a directory viewer to make a
new copy of the item in that directory.
In the case of the new file, this will in effect
create a new file with the same characteristics
of that inside the attribute directory.
Note that it is not a good idea to use this
facility to copy accross discs on a single disc
system (unless you like swapping discs).
In the case when a directory is dragged to the
attribute icon, an attribute window is opened as
normal, however, some of the sections in the
window will not allow the Update process.
Dragging the icon in the attribute window in this
case will make a copy of the entire directory
sub-tree.
I hope these notes (and indeed, the program !)
prove usefull.
