CLI- The Command Line Interface program. It was the only way that most Amiga users could access the power underneath Workbench 1.3.

Internal Commands

DiskCopy- A program that was loaded when Duplicate was selected from the pull-down menus. As the name suggests, it is designed to copy disks.

Format- Formats a disk.

FastMemFirst- Loads programs into the fast memory first if it is available.

SetMap- Selects the keyboard mapping system according to where about on the planet you are. These configurations are stored in the DEVS:KEYMAPS drawer.

InitPrinter- Initialises the printer (i.e. turns it on).

NoFastMem- Disables fast memory.

Mergemem- Adds memory expansion so that it can be recognised.

FixFonts- Still used in Workbench 3.0. It updates the font configurations to recognise new fonts that have been added.
