Directories

Of the directories below, at least lib and IOst should be located at the top level of an Amiga logical device with the (case insensitive) name usr:; and it is traditional to locate them all there. The bin directory should be added to the execution path. Various Vsys applications refer internally to the usr: device as /usr. The Vsys standard IO interface for the Amiga translates unix-style fully qualified paths /x/y/z... into Amiga-style paths x:y/z..., where the top-level unix directory becomes an Amiga logical device.

Text files in this part of the Vsys distribution have LF line endings.

ASM/ Ann Arbor Macro Assembler (AAma).
bin/ Executables.
