YAOS (Yet Another OS/2 Shell) version 0.4, Copyright 1994
=========================================================
(FREEWARE)
This is a simple shell that runs on top of cmd.exe. It features:
* Unix-like file name completion using the <esc> or <tab> key
* a history of previously used commands with ability
to access them using commands like: !!, !4, !v test.c
(those familiar with unix would know what I am
talking about). Of course, the up and down cursor
keys will scroll through previous commands too.
* ability to change directory to any [drive:\directory]
in a single command using the normal 'cd' command.
* support for prompt setting in OS/2 (except for $R $V and $I)
* full implementation of command line editing
* last but not least, it is FREE.
This is the fourth release of YAOS. The new features are:
* a popup window that displays the possible file names to
complete. You can scroll through the entries in this
popup window using the up and down arrow-keys.
['-w' option when starting YAOS]
* Alt-H keystroke will bring up a popup window containing
commands that are stored in history. Again, you can scroll
through this list using the cursor keys. (The window will
only appear if there are two or more commands in history).
This release is by no means a bug free version. However, I hope you'll
use and like YAOS. Suggestions and comments are welcomed.
Installation
------------
1) Copy YAOS.EXE to a PATHed directory (eg. C:\OS)
2) Copy EMX.DLL to a LIBRARY directory (eg. C:\OS\DLL)
3) Now you can safely run YAOS
NOTE: Failure to perform the above steps will result in improper execution
of YAOS.
