Summary
We've covered a lot in this chapter.
We
have told
you
about:
• Starting DOS and telling it the date
• Keys
that
have special uses in DOS
• Making a back-up copy
of
your
DOS Diskette
• Diskettes and terms
that
are used with them
• Files and their names
• Finding
out
what files are on the DOS Diskette.
We
have provided step-by-step procedures for using these
DOS commands:
•
FORMAT
•
DIR
•
DISKCOPY
COpy
•
•
TYPE
•
RENAME
•
ERASE
•
MODE
We
hope
you're
well on
your
way
to
feeling comfortable
with
your
computer
and DOS. No
matter
how
much
we've covered, there's always
more-in
particular,
we
r-...
haven't given
you
the short-cuts
that
you'll
start
to
pick
up
as
you
read the Disk Operating
System
book
and use
the commands.
Now it's time
to
read the next chapter, "Using BASIC"
to learn
about
running BASIC programs.
