Types of M~-DOS Commands
There are two types of MS-DOS commands:
Internal commands
External commands
Internal commands are the simplest, most commonly used
commands, but you cannot see them when you list the directory
on your MS-DOS disk because they are part of a file named
command com_ When you type internal commands, MS-DOS per-
forms
them immediately_ This is because they were loaded into
your computer's memory when you started MS-DOS_ Following is
a list
of the MS-DOS internal commands:
break
exit reo
chdir
for nndir
cIs
goto set
copy
if shift
ctty
mkdir time
date

del pause ver
