This option allows you to step outside of the program,
temporarily, and to use any of the operating system
built-in commands - such as DIR, COPY or SORT. You can
even start another program, provided that there is
enough memory in your computer to allow it.
DEMON.EXE will actually load a second copy of DOS as a
"child process", enabling you to perform any of the
tasks you would normally do from the operating system
command line prompt. This program will stay in memory,
however, and you can return to it at any time, just
by entering the command 'EXIT'.
