UTOPPYA(1)              NetBSD General Commands Manual              UTOPPYA(1)


NAME

     utoppya -- Topfield TF5000PVR DVB recorder file manipulation program


SYNOPSIS

     utoppya [-f device] command ...


DESCRIPTION

     utoppya is the userland interface to the Topfield TF5000PVR range of DVB
     recorders (nicknamed `Toppy') which uses the utoppy(4) device driver.

     The options are as follows:

     -f      Communicate with device instead of the default /dev/utoppy0.

     Using the services of the utoppy(4) driver, utoppya can perform the fol-
     lowing operations, specified by the command operand:

     df      Display disk size and free space

     ls [directory]
             List the files in the specified directory.  Default is the
             Toppy's root directory.

     mkdir <directory>
             Make the specified directory.  You must supply the full pathname
             to directory.

     rm <pathname>
             Delete the file or directory specified by pathname.

     rename <source> <target>
             Rename the file or directory specified by the source operand to
             the destination file or directory specified by the target oper-
             and.

     get [-prt] <toppyfile> [localfile]
             Copy toppyfile from the Toppy to localfile on the local file sys-
             tem.  If localfile is omitted, the file will be copied into the
             current directory and will be named using the last component of
             the toppyfile operand.  If localfile is `-', then toppyfile will
             be copied to the standard output.

             The following options are available for the get command:

             -p      Display a progress bar.

             -r      This option is useful if you wish to resume a previously
                     interrupted get command.  Instead of restarting from the
                     beginning of the file, the transfer will resume where it
                     left off.

             -t      Enable `Turbo' mode.  This instructs the Toppy to drop
                     everything and concentrate on transferring the file as
                     quickly as possible.  You will be able to watch live TV,
                     but all other functions, including changing channel via
                     the remote control, will be inoperative.

     put [-prt] <localfile> <toppyfile>
             Copy localfile on the local filesystem to toppyfile on the Toppy.
             If toppyfile specifies a directory on the Toppy, the last compo-
             nent of the localfile operand will be appended to the toppyfile
             operand.

             The options described for the get command (above) also apply to
             the put command.

HISTORY

     The utoppya command first appeared in NetBSD 4.0 and was inspired by

     `puppy' written by Peter Urbanec <toppy at urbanec.net>.
