This option also lets you select alternate code pages (character sets) and redirect data from the parallel port to the serial port. because you can perform so many tasks from the Mode Settings submenus, this option is a powerful alternative to the MS-DOS MODE command.

Lets you run other MS-DOS commands without leaving the MENU program.

Using the XTREE Utility

Epson has included the XTREE program with MS-DOS to make it easier for you to manage files and run other MS-DOS programs. XTREE is fast and easy to use. It lets you do the work of many MS-DOS commands using a convenient menu format, and provides several features not available elsewhere in MS-DOS.

XTREE lets you view your directories and subdirectories in one tree- structured directory, so you can quickly see the organization of your files. When you highlight a filename, XTREE displays the file’s statistics in a window to the side of the screen.

At the bottom of the screen, XTREE displays a menu that lists the functions you can perform by pressing the corresponding letter. Among other things, these XTREE functions let you:

•Display all the files in a directory and the statistics for each file.

•Copy, delete, or move files individually or in groups, to any directory or diskette.
