Short: Use MSDOS6 commands on your Amiga (Shell util')
Author: cmsdloma@livjm.ac.uk
Uploader: cmsdloma@livjm.ac.uk
Type: util/cli
$VER: MSDOS® For AmigaDOS® 3.0 (27.9.1995)
[NB: .lha AND .dms version is included, since this can be a bit tricky
to set up. If you're a beginner, use the DMS version. If you're still
baffled, mail me!]
What is MSDOS for AmigaDOS?
~~~~ ~~ ~~~~~ ~~~ ~~~~~~~~~
Quite simply- it allows you to use MSDOS commands on your AMIGA, most
of which are conveniently shorter and there are a few extra commands.
Here's some features:
· Enables the use of commands like Del, Deltree, Pause, DOSKey, etc.
· No need to alter existing Workbench commands
· Works with RESIDENT commands too! (One or two, like DELTREE don't)
· Takes up VERY LITTLE RAM!
· Fully AmigaDOS 2+ compatible, & works on ANY device (irrelevent!).
· Completely invisible- AmigaDOS commands still work as well!
· Doesn't echo commands. It's "QUIET" like MSDOS
· Can use * wildcard!
· Also allows you to use . as current directory and .. as parent
· Double click an MS-DOS icon, and get an MS-DOS supporting DosShell
· Use A: and B:, instead of boring old DF0: and DF1:
De-archive & try NOW!!!
N.B. (INSTALLATION)
===
This is VERY important, when you de-archive this, you =MUST= preserve the
file attributes. This can be done either by using GuiArc or using the -a
option like so:
LHA x -a MSDOS_30.Lha RAM:
If you don't preserve the file's attributes, nothing will work!
When the INSTALLATION is complete- You MUST reboot for it to work
