- Paper source: Your machine should have come with several manuals, including one
- documenting the shell commands (please, DON'T call it "batch programming
- language" because it gives me Microsoft Claustrophobia!). In my case at least,
- the appropriate manual is labeled "AmigaDOS".
-
- Electronic source: Take a look at DosMan. It's on Aminet:

- "DosMan121.lha util/wb 145K 36+Complete GUI Dos Manual"
