Short:        sysflush - flushes unused libs, devs and fonts
Author:       Rupert Hausberger <natmeg(!)gmx.net>
Uploader:     Rupert Hausberger <natmeg(!)gmx.net>
Type:         util/misc
Version:      1.3
Architecture: ppc-morphos

Description
===========
  sysflush is a shell-tool to flush unused memory, libraries,
  devices and fonts. It can also act in background.

Requirements
============
  - MorphOS 1.x

Installation
============
  Copy the executable to C:

Usage
=====
  sysflush does only work from a shell.

  Arguments
  ---------
  M=MEMORY/S,L=LIBS/S,D=DEVS/S,F=FONTS,A=ALL/S,S=SERVER/S,Y=DELAY/N,Q=QUIET/S

  M=MEMORY/S - Flush memory
  L=LIBS/S   - Flush libraries
  D=DEVS/S   - Flush devices
  D=FONTS/S  - Flush fonts
  A=ALL/S    - Flush all (default)

  S=SERVER/S - Enable server (CTRL_C to break)
  Y=DELAY/N  - Delay in secounds between each flush (default 1800 == 30 mins)

  Q=QUIET/S  - Be quiet, print no output

  You can quit the server by sending CTRL_C and by sending CTRL_F you can
  force the server to do a flush with the given parameters.

  From shell
  ----------
  "sysflush"            - Flush all (libs, devs, fonts, memory)
  "sysflush l"          - Flush only libs
  "sysflush q"          - Flush all, no output

  "run sysflush s"      - Run as server and flush every 30 minutes
  "run sysflush s y 60" - Run as server and flush every minute

  From s:user-startup
  -------------------
  "run c:sysflush s" or
  "run c:sysflush s q" to supress any output

  Exclusions 
  ----------
  The following libraries are skipped, because flushing them cause the system
  to frezze or crash. (At least on MorphOS)

  Name                      OS-Version
  ------------------------------------
  diskfont.library          1.x
  cgx#?.library             1.x/2.x
  xpkIMPL.library           2.x
  ahxplay.library#?         2.x

  More libraries may be added in the future. Also some libraries and devices
  do not flush, even if their useCount == 0, so don't wonder.
