Description
A complete guide to the IBM PC's current disk operating systems, including DOS 2.1, 3.0, and 3.1. The book takes the mystery out of the PC's "Chief Executive Program" with clear step-by-step guidance to DOS functions, commands, and utilities, and explains basic procedures such as booting DOS and advanced operations like batch processing and using the EDLINE line editor. Each procedure is illustrated with examples. Screen photographs show what to do and what to expect at each step. Also included are numerous hands-on exercises.
