DOS Plus is an excellent new operating system which helps you to explore the full potential of your microcomputer. It offers many of the features of the MS-DOS whilst at the same time running CP/M-86 discs and programme. Using DOS Plus begins by introducing the general concepts and benefits of an operating system. Chapter 2 describes the built- in commands and utilities, and how to use them. Chapter 3 covers the DOS plus "batch" language, a set of commands which manipulate many areas of the micro and which present a simple Expert System. Chapter 4 explains the extra utilities supplied with the system including ED and PIP. Chapter 5 details the File Manager a "front end" which allows you to handle discs without having to continually refer to DOS Plus commands. This idea is extended in Chapter 6 where "The GEM Collection", an icon-based suite of programs very often supplied with DOS Plus is described. Chapter 7 offers a unique "How Do You Do" reference for using DOS Plus, giving step by step solutions to the most frequently asked questions.
The book assumes no previous knowledge of DOS Plus but goes beyond being a mere introduction - it has detail enough for even the most seasoned user. For home or business use, this book provides you with all the information you need to explore the possibilities of this versatile operating system.
