Using an ATA Card

You can use standard DOS commands to copy, delete, and move files, and to
create and remove directories on an ATA card. To learn which DOS commands
are available on the reader, see the MS-DOS Programs companion disk 2.
For example, on a JANUS 2010 with a PCMCIA Back, you can copy all the files
from drive E to drive G by typing this command at the DOS prompt:
copy e:\*.* g:
To delete all the files on the ATA card in drive G, type this command at the
DOS prompt:
del g:\*.*
If you need more information about DOS commands, refer to any book that
describes DOS commands.
