Summary:
StarCOM gives you the same visibility and control over the
internal commands of DOS as you now have over a file directory. You
can change, delete, duplicate or view internal DOS commands.
There are two main reasons you should get StarCOM. First is the
ability to "Bypass DOS". This would be useful in conjunction with
Blaiz so that the improved Copy and Del commands can be used with
their familiar names. This can also be used with any third party
improvement to DOS. For example, if you have a favorite DIR program
called FastDIR you might really like changing the internal command DIR
to say CAT (for catalogue) so you could rename FastDir.exe to DIR.exe.
Then when you typed DIR, FastDIR would run!
The second main reason you should get StarCOM is for foreign
language customizing. For example, if you speak Japanese you could
change the internal commands to Japanese, eg. if you change DIR to HYO
when you type HYO you'll get the familiar file list. This works for
any language: French, Greek, Swedish, German, etc..
StarCOM is not a TSR, it rewrites command.com and so takes up no
additional memory. It does not hook nor intercept interrupts which
means universal program compatibility. It works equally from both
command line or from a batch file.
StarCOM registration is $59.95 and has a 60 day satisfaction or
money back guarantee. As an Introductory Offer, if you register both
Blaiz and StarCOM before July 18, 1990 you get $10 off. So, save $10
by ordering both right away.
