- X-DOS Version 5.0 Distributed by Advantage Plus Dist., Inc. (A+)
-
- X-DOS is a single user, single tasking, enhanced Disk Operating System
- (DOS) for Personal Computers. It is highly compatible with competitive
- DOS packages yet offers many additional features and functions.
-
- HOW TO MAKE AN X-DOS BOOT DISK:
-
- Place a formated floppy disk in drive A:. From a directory that
- contains the X-DOS files, X-DOS.SYS COMMAND.COM and SYS.COM, which may
- be the floppy itself or a subdirectory on another drive run, SYS A:
-
- This will make the floppy disk in drive A: an X-DOS bootable disk.
-

- copyright law and this license.

- - No fee is charged for use or distribution, beyond a nominal copy or
- distribution fee.
-
- and
-
- - The files are not modified in any way. Unmodified copies are
- available on request from Advantage Plus Dist., Inc.
-
- If you find X-DOS good enough to use regularly, you must become a
- registered user. As a registered user, you will receive a diskette with
- the current version of X-DOS that boots directly into CONFIG.SYS and
- AUTOEXEC.BAT without the pause in the Shareware Evaluation Copy.

-
- Note: Many of these enhanced utilities are compatible with other DOS.
- However, some of these utilities are highly specific to X-DOS and should
- be run from X-DOS only, these include: Install, Keyb, Sys, Xcopy,
- Xshell, Vdisk and Viruschk.
-
- Chkdsk can perform a disk surface analysis in addition to common chkdsk
- functions. Debug is a full screen programming environment. Ed is a
- full screen text editor whose parameters such as margins, auto-indent
- and word wrap may be set by command line prompts. Diskcomp, Diskcopy,
- Format, Xback, Xhelp, and Xcopy are full screen enhanced utilities that
- are generally compatible with other DOS.
-
- Some Fdisk functions such as to password protect a harddrive partition
- are highly integrated with the X-DOS system and cannot be expected to
- work with other DOS. Other Fdisk functions such as low level formatting
- a hard drive, creating partitions up to 512 meg and making partitions
- read only are generally compatible with other DOS. Before using any DOS
- utility such as Format or Fdisk, that can overwrite existing data, backup
- copies of important data should be made and safely stored.
