Basic Guide to
DOS
Brief Introduction |
The tutorial is a
reference to DOS shell commands and most useful
external commands.
It also features a little bit of batch
programming
to automate most common tasks.
The tutorial doesn't require any previous
knowledge of DOS
DOS
- Disk Operating
System - is an old operating
system prior to Windows that manages everything
on your computer: hardware, memory, files...
Many people consider DOS ancient history, with
the presence of graphic
driven operating systems (GUI - Graphic User
Interface)
such as Windows, MacOS,
I bet no one is running DOS as an
operating
system.
However, the black box becomes useful when you're
stuck with Windows,
so it's sometimes necessary to know the basics of
DOS.
Even during the reign of Windows, DOS is still
involved in many tasks.
Another reason why you should learn DOS is to
overwhelm your friends
with a bunch of cryptic commands just like in the
movies !
DOS isn't that complicated, all you need to know
is few commands
to list your files, copy, delete, rename, and
other stuff...
