RUNNING COMMON DOS COMMANDS
Pressing Alt-F will display a menu of some common DOS op-
erations. For convenience, a few commands available elsewhere
have been included.
+-| DOS Functions -------+
| |
| Jump to DOS shell |
| Files directory |
| Change drive/directory |
| Delete file |
| DOS command |
| Run editor |
| Exit |
| |
+------------------------+
1: Jump to DOS Shell. This performs the same function as the
Alt-J command.
2: Files directory. Telix will prompt you for the optional
filespec, for example '*.doc'. If you want to list all
the files in the current directory then just press Re-
turn. Telix will then do one of two things. If you have
defined a directory program to use (in the Configuration
Menu), Telix will run it. Otherwise Telix will use its
own internal directory program, which is similar to the
DOS 'dir' command but also displays the time it would
take to transfer each file shown. The time is correct for
the current default upload file transfer protocol.
3: Change drive/directory. The current directory is dis-
played and you are asked to enter a new one. You can en-
ter a new drive, a new directory, or both. This will be-
come the current directory. Note that this is slightly
different from the DOS 'chdir' command.
4: Delete file. You are asked to enter the filename of the
file to delete.
5: DOS command. This performs the same function as the Alt-V
command.
6: Run editor. This performs the same function as the Alt-A
command.
