CLI command: sysvars v0.15 (update)
sysvars is a small CLI tool that creates several environment variables holding valuable system information (e.g. CPU and FPU, the chipset or Kickstart version). These variables can be used, for example, in the startup-sequence to enable/disable certain patches, assigns etc.

Version 0.14 provides the following variables for checking the installed memory:
  • $TotalChipRam - Total amount of Chip RAM installed in KB
  • $TotalFastRam - Total amount of real Fast RAM installed in KB
  • $TotalSlowRam - Total amount of Slow RAM installed in KB
  • $SlowRamFirst - indicates that slow ram is first in memory list
In addition, variables are no longer available if they do not make sense. For example, $FPU is not set to an empty value, but is removed if the CPU is < 68020. Further changes:
  • Fixed critical bug for Kickstart 1.3 and 1.2
  • added probevar utility to test for the existence of environment variables
  • Added compile support for PhxAsm and asmotor
Update: (17:02, 15.11.24, dr)
Version 0.15 is now available, which fixes a bug in the vampire detection and adds the $TotalRam variable. (dr)
