Symantec Releases "NDOS" with Norton Utilities 6.0
(Copyright 1991, JP Software Inc., All Rights Reserved. Published by JP
Software Inc., P.O. Box 1470, E. Arlington, MA 02174 USA, (617) 646-3975.
Released June 11, 1991.)
If you're a Norton Utilities customer you may find something familiar in
your next upgrade. The "NDOS" command interpreter included with NU 6.0
is a version of 4DOS 3.03 licensed from JP Software, and enhanced for
Symantec's Peter Norton Division. We're excited about this opportunity
to distribute 4DOS technology to a broader base of users; we're also
pleased that Symantec found 4DOS to be a valuable addition to its top of
the line utility product, and we look forward to a continuing
relationship in support of NDOS.
JP Software retains full ownership of 4DOS and will continue to sell,
support, and enhance 4DOS as an independent product, offering
individual copies, resale copies, and site licenses to meet the needs
of all customers. In fact, we will release a major upgrade to 4DOS
later this summer, with a wide variety of new features and other
significant improvements.
The new release of 4DOS will include the features found in NDOS which
go beyond those available in the current released version of 4DOS,
version 3.03 (for example, additional environment variables and
variable functions), with the exception of features specific to
Symantec's product (like internal support for a subset of the Norton
Utilities BE command). In addition, the new release will offer a
host of new features and capabilities unique to 4DOS.
Please contact us if you have any questions regarding 4DOS. Technical
or other questions about NDOS should of course be directed to Symantec's
Peter Norton Division.
