Description
The authors have created a tutorial that takes readers step- by-step through the commands and functions of DOS 4. The self-teaching format helps readers develop their knowledge of DOS commands and fully explains DOS functions, then shows how to accomplish each one by explaining shell features as well as DOS commands. It includes practical coverage of file and directory management, with guidance on how to customize the DOS shell to user needs. For reinforcement there are self-checks throughout each chapter, and each chapter concludes with self-test exercises.
