The following section describe the internal GS DOS commands in detail.

!

The command line functions are intended for developers only. Some commands may produce undesirable results or

may not function at all. In addition, the LCD may not display the command results properly.

HELP

The HELP command displays a list of the commands that are supported by the command interpreter.

Syntax: HELP

BREAK

The BREAK command changes or displays how GS DOS handles break-ins by the user with ^C and CTL-BRK key sequences. If BREAK is ON, then GS DOS will break out of a running program or batch file when the ^C or CTL-BRK keys are pressed. If BREAK is OFF, then GS DOS will not break out, but will instead pass the keys pressed to the program.

Syntax: BREAK [ONlOFF]

CALL

The CALL command executes a pre-recorded list of commands as a subroutine.
