fdisk: complete command on a single line

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I would like to extend fdisk to support input on a single line:

To set the type of partition 7 to 83:
	t 7 83

To create a new logical partition, I would like to be able to type:
	n l * +1000M

Similarly, to delete partition 2:
	d 2
(Every 4 months, I type exactly this by mistake, and get surprised by the 
response.  Every 3 months I type "d" [return] "1" [return] and get "1: 
unknown command" and the menu, which is equally distracting.)

Would it break anything to allow the "parameters" of a command to be given on 
the command line?  (Currently all data after the "command" is ignored.)
