APPENDIX B
The DOS Commands
This manual does not provide full information on all of the DOS
commands. If you have any questions, you should refer to your Disk
Operating System manual.
The command formats given below are, in many cases, simplified.
FORMAT NOTATION
In this manual, the following conventions are used to indicate how
the DOS commands should be entered (i.e., their formats).
1 .
Words shown in lowercase bold letters (but not enclosed
by brackets) must be typed exactly as they are shown
(only exception: they can also be typed uppercase or
mixed-case). For example, if "copy" is part of a
command format, you should type the word "copy."
2. Words shown within angle brackets
<>
should not be
typed in as they are shown. For example, if <file name>
is part of a command format, you should not type "file
name." Instead, you should type the file name (base
name and extension) of the file you are dealing with (for
example, letter.#lO). You do not type the angle brackets.
Similarly, if <drive> is part of a command format, you
should not type "drive." Instead, you should type the
drive specifier of the drive you are dealing with (for
example, a: or c:). You do not type the angle brackets.
