Allegro DOS Owner’s Manual 71
F6 Move
This command moves a fi le or a group of fi les to other drives or
directories. Highlight a fi le or mark a group of fi les to be copied
using Ins and press F6.
You are asked to enter the destination for the fi les to be moved to
on the second status line. Enter the destination path (drive and
directory). Press ENTER to move the fi le(s).
❖ Note: You cannot move fi les to the ROM drive (A:)
F7 Rename
To rename a fi le, highlight the desired fi le and press F7. Enter the
new fi lename and press ENTER. If you do not want a fi lename to
have an extension, type the fi lename ending with a period. For
example, MYFILE. would be listed in the directory without an
extension.
F8 Mark All
Marks all the fi les on the current directory.
F9 Unmark All
Unmarks all the fi les on the current directory.
F10 Util
Eight additional utility functions are accessed by pressing F10. A list
of the functions is shown in a pop-up box.
To select a utility, type the number associated with it or highlight the
desired utility and press ENTER.
1. Terminal Causes the Allegro to act as a dumb terminal. This is
useful if you have a serial device such as a bar code
wand or GPS receiver attached to the Allegro and
want to verify whether or not the Allegro is receiving
serial data from the device.
2. Editor Executes the Text Editor. Use this function when
you are creating a new text fi le (must be 64 K or
less). After selecting this function, you must enter a
name for the fi le to be edited on the second status
line and then press ENTER. This text editor function
differs from the F6 edit function which is used to edit
existing fi les only. (See Text Editor later in this chapter
for details.)
