What is ShortCut?
ShortCut is many things. It is a communicator between you and DOS,
the operating system of your computer. It is a file manager and disk
organizer. It is a shortcut to getting your work done, offering you
features not available in DOS.
ShortCut allows you to send commands to DOS even if you are using
another program. For example, you might be using your word processor,
spreadsheet, or database manager when you realize you want to copy
some files to another disk. Normally you would have to save your
work, exit your program, type in the DOS command to copy the files,
perhaps type in additional copy commands, restart your program, and
retrieve your work file. Now you only need to call up ShortCut with
one keystroke and "point" at the files, the COPY command, and the
destination of your files. ShortCut does the work. When the files
are copied, you return to your program with one more keystroke. Your
program continues as if nothing happened!
ShortCut takes the hassle out of DOS. You work rapidly and with less
effort. Yet you do not sacrifice flexibility as ShortCut can handle
any DOS command gracefully. Using your computer is simply more fun
and less work.
