INTRODUCTION
%DOS
is a program that emulates some MS-DOS commands from
within Micronetics Standard M (MSM). Once you run this
program you will be presented with a familiar extended
MS-DOS prompt.
Once you run this
program (D ^%DOS) you'll start off at
the MSM directory.
The list of commands available in this shareware version
are:
- DIR
- REN
- DEL
- CD
- TYPE
- <drive>
Besides these commands, you also have the following:
- EXIT or H - to return you back to the MSM prompt restoring the
original drive / directory location.
- . (period) - to rerun the last command executed
- %<routine> - to run % MGR utilities from within this shell
- ZDIR - copies the current directory into the Global ^UTILITY.
The records in ^UTILITY
are organized as:
^UTILITY("%DOS",<job
number>,0)=free space
For each file in the
directory an entry will exist as shown below.
^UTILITY("%DOS",<job
number>,<file name>)=size
%DOS is SHAREWARE
INSTALLATION
Open the ZIP archive.
Run your version of MSM
