NEW:  as of v0.08, TurboList is pure and hence can be made resident.
      (see history for further additions)

TurboList is a command similar to the standard list command supplied with
AmigaDOS.

The normal 'list' command, lists files like this:

etherpeek                   2369 ---arwed 04-Jan-95 22:21:34
alien.iff                1314114 ----rwed 07-Jan-95 01:31:08
desert.rat.toxic.article.gz    3684 ----rwed 05-Apr-95 17:24:34

electric.bullet             1416 ---arwed 04-Jan-95 22:16:54
ar311.lha                  95557 ----rwed Today     02:44:23
replacement.functions       1029 ----rwed 11-Mar-93 23:20:17
9 files - 3796 blocks used


TurboList lists them like this (similar to unix ls):

---arwed 04 Jan 22:21   2.3 K  etherpeek
----rwed 07 Jan 01:31   1.3 M  alien.iff
----rwed 05 Apr 17:24   3.6 K  desert.rat.toxic.article.gz
----rwed 28 Mar 19:11   0.5 K  ultoa020.o
---arwed 04 Jan 14:27  13.4 K  ftphunt.gz
----rwed 26 Mar 19:21 492.8 K  mui23usr.LZX
---arwed 04 Jan 22:16   1.4 K  electric.bullet
----rwed Tod 02:44:23  93.3 K  ar311.lha
----rwed 11 Mar  xx93   1.0 K  replacement.functions
TOTAL:  9 files [1.8 M] and 0 dirs [1.9 M used, 1.0 M free]


As  you  can  see,  long  filenames  do  not  stuffup  the formatting.
Additionally,  file sizes are approximated to their nearest multiplier
(ie.   Kilobytes,  Megabytes  or  Gigabytes),  which is much easier to
read.  This behaviour can be switched off.

The  date/time  output  is also different - if the file was created on
the  day  you  are listing it, it will print out "Tod hh:mm:ss", where
Tod  = Today, hh = hours, mm = minutes, ss = seconds.  If the file was
created  within  6 months of Today, the day of the month and the month
will  be  printed,  along  with  hh:mm.   If  the file is older than 6
months,  the  full  date,  but  no  time,  is printed.  This unix-like
behaviour  can  be  switched off and the full date printed without any
conditions.

Additionally,  the  file sizes are added up and listed at the end (the
[1.8  M]  in  above example).  The actual space taken up by the listed
files is also printed (ie.  1.9 M used) - this is due to the amount of
blocks  being used for a file, and blocks have constant sizes (usually
512  bytes  on  FFS),  hence  a file which takes up 444 bytes actually
takes up 2 blocks, 1 * 512 for the file, and 1 * 512 for the directory
entry  (these  values all depend on the file system used).  The amount
of free space (ie.  1 M free) on the device is also printed.

 - Can be upto 30% faster than the normal 'list' command
 - Long filenames fit without stuffing up the display
 - Approximates the file size so it can be read easily (can be turned off)
 - similar to unix-ls date printing behaviour
 - handles patterns (ie. stuff like foobar.#? etc)
 - listing according to dates (since/upto date limitations)

History:

0.08	seperated fields by 2 spaces
	seperated size multiplier by 1 space
	modified date output to be more unix like
	modified file size approximator to always display in x.x format
	added COMMENT/S
	added NOTOTAL/S
	removed BOTH/S
	can now be made resident: uses cres.o for resident startup,
	hence the executable is larger than necessary.  Next version
	may have a stripped down version of cres.o
