AUTOEXEC.BAT
Note: AUTOEXEC.BAT is processed by COMMAND.COM and has no
meaning if another program is used as a shell (see the section SHELL=
above).
DOS Settings
ECHO [ON | OFF | TEXT]
This command (which is commonly used in batch files, especially AUTOEXEC.BAT) displays
a text string (the TEXT option), or enable/disable the echoing of commands in the batch file
as it is executed. When a batch file is used to execute a program, it gives a more "transparent"
look if the commands which "set up" the applications's execution are hidden. To prevent the
ECHO OFF command from itself echoing, precede it with an @ sign (e.g., @ECHO OFF).
MODE
This command sets up and/or configures various drivers. Refer to the MS-DOS User's
Manual for more information.
PATH
This command sets the path(s) used to find executable programs.
PROMPT
This command modifies the DOS COMMAND.COM shell prompt.
SET
This command sets environment variables. This is normally used to set up environment
variables required by TSRs or applications/environments.

information on loading the TSRs device drivers, and on the APIs supported by each device
