SYSTEM 2 Operating Environment
--------------By David Wild---
System2 is public domain software, - you have my permission to copy it
freely for your friends - so long as you don't alter it & pass it off as
your own!
System 2 is an operating system shell for the Atari ST computer. It should
work without problem on all versions of the computer and TOS.
It's main features are:
o Unix Style command entry
o Full input/output redirection & piping
o Around 50 built-in commands
o Ability to quickly recall the last 10 commands typed
o Only takes up around 45K of memory
o Aliasing and variables
o Mini programming language with IFs and GOTOs
o Built in expression evaluator
To run System2, double click on the SYSTEM2.TTP icon. Full documentation
is provided in the file called MANUAL (about 70 pages long), and can
be accessed by using the help command. For further details on using
System2, type one of the following (& press RETURN at the end) when in
System2.
HELP ?
HELP INDEX
HELP INTRO
Alternatively, the file SYSTEM2.DOC contains the manual in straight ASCII
format.
Included with System2 are the public domain utilities MicroEmacs, a text
editor, and the Eternal ramdisk.
System2 was written using Mark Williams C and assembler by:

I hope you get some enjoyment out of the System2. Feel free to copy it
for your freinds, but please include this READ.ME file. Please let me know
what you think of the program!
Bye for now,
