Disk Utilities

Lets you check, copy, compare, and
format diskettes. This option gives

you easy-to-use alternatives to the

MS-DOS CHKDSK, DISKCOPY,
DISKCOMP, and FORMAT
commands.

Mode Settings

Lets you change your configuration

settings. This option also lets you

select alternate code pages (character

sets) and redirect data from the
parallel port to the serial port.

Because you can perform so many
tasks from the Mode Settings
submenus, this option is a powerful

alternative to the MS-DOS MODE

command.

Help

Lets you access the Epson HELP
utility.

Enter DOS Command

Lets you run other MS-DOS

commands without leaving the
MENU program.

Using the XTREE Utility

Epson has included the XTREE program with MS-DOS to make

it easier for you to manage files and run other MS-DOS programs.

XTREE is fast and easy to use. It lets you do the work of many

MS-DOS commands using a convenient menu format, and provides
several features not available elsewhere in MS-DOS.

XTREE presents a visual diagram of your hard disk’s directory tree,

so you can see quickly how your files are organized. When you
highlight a filename, XTREE displays the file’s statistics in a

window to the side of the screen.
