- If you are an absolute beginner to the intricacies of the CLI, here is one
- place to start learning. You should read the Commodore manual that you got
- with your computer first, then try out some commands in these tutorials.
- Unless, of course, you have an Amiga A1200, in which case you have no
- manuals! SO I recommend you buy a third-party Amiga 1200 Shell manual.
-
- Should you ever find the need for a larger CLI window, do the following...
-
- 1. Click on the CLI window's shrink/expand gadget.
- 2. Click on the CLI window's front/back gadget if it is not in
- front of the text window.
-
- To shrink it again, just click again on the shrink/expand gadget.
-
- Remember that the C.L.Index section is not for absolute beginners so I
- suggest you try out these tutorials if you are at all unsure of how to use
- the CLI (Shell).
-
- The terms CLI and Shell are readily interchanged within this text. They
- both mean the same thing - the small window at the bottom of the screen.
- To type a command at the Shell prompt, simply click inside the window and
- type. When you need to move the text down, just click inside the text
- window and use the cursor keys or gadgets as normal.
-
- Throughout the tutorials, you type the text in colour. Do not type in
- the things in colour outside of the tutorial section. These are just for
- reference purposes.
-
- Now quit PPmore and double click on Tutorial 1.
