ROM-DOS 6.22 Command Descriptions 3-7

F u l l D e s c r i p t i o n o f C o m m a n d s

The following pages provide complete descriptions of each ROM-DOS
command -- including batch subcommands.

The entries are in alphabetical order. Each entry includes a
description of the command's purpose, command entry syntax,
remarks, and examples as appropriate.

Each command also has a label to designate whether it is an Internal
or External command. Internal commands are part of the command
processor program COMMAND.COM. These functions are only
available while COMMAND.COM is running. External commands are
actually stand-alone utility programs. They are independent from
COMMAND.COM. A special notation is also made for those Internal
commands that are unique to CONFIG.SYS processing. These
commands, labeled Internal/CONFIG.SYS, can only be used inside a
CONFIG.SYS file.

For an explanation of typing conventions, see “Conventions Used in
This Manual” in the introductory materials of this book.

For Online Help information and syntax descriptions, use the /? option
with any command.

The file COMMAND.HLP must be available in the

root directory on the boot drive to get help

information for Internal commands.

Example

DIR /?

Displays information and syntax for the DIR command.
