DOSTIPS5.ARC
In November 1985, I distributed to various BBS's a series of
files named DOSTIPS1.ARC, DOSTIPS2.ARC, and DOSTIPS3.ARC followed in
July 1986 by DOSTIPS4.ARC. Users of these files will recall that I
compiled and editted a variety of articles from various computing
magazines which I had found to be helpful and useful in using DOS.
This DOSTIPS5.ARC file is a continuation of that first series of
DOSTIPS files. The tips, hints, tricks and techniques in this file
are taken from a variety of magazine articles and other sources over
the last 6 months of 1986. As before, I take NO personal credit for
authoring any of the items. I did take certain liberties in editting
the articles. Nevertheless, attribution is properly given in all
instances.
The various files contained within DOSTIPS5.ARC were all prepared
using WordStar in nondocument (ASCII) mode. This DOSTIPS file is
arranged in the following categories.
DOSBATCH Creating and using DOS batch files
DOSCOLOR Changing colors from DOS
DOSENVN Making the DOS environment better and faster
DOSFIND Better use of the DOS FIND command
DOSKEYS Renaming and redefining keys
DOSKYBD Enhancing the keyboard
DOSMISC Miscellaneous DOS tips
DOSPRINT Printing from DOS
Enjoy!
