Creating a New CLI Window
AmigaDOS is multitasking, meaning it can do more tham
one
thing
at a
time
.
You
can
have multiple
windows open at
once,
each
having its
own current
directory
and executing
its
own separate command.
You
create a
new CLI by
using the NEWCLI
command:
NEWCLI
This opens a separate window,
with
a
prompt that
shows which
process
it's
operating as
(i.e.,
which number window it is)
.
For
example,
if the first window
had a
1>
prompt, then the new CLI window may have
a
2>
prompt.
