DOS REFERENCE

The following table provides a list of the most common DOS commands that you are most likely to use when operating the CC1. In addition, you can use the command HELP to access the MS-DOS command reference on the CC1.

NOTE: In DOS, the backslash symbol (“ \ “) used alone, refers to the root directory. The [..] symbol refers to the parent directory.

			name and location of a file or set of files to which you want to
			copy. Destination can consist of a drive letter and colon, a directory

DEL	C:\>DEL C:\9700\TEST.MON		Deletes the file or files you specify. You must include the location
	C:\>DEL A:TEST.MON		(if other than you current location) and name of the file or set of

	C:\9700>DEL TEST.* /P	/P	Prompts you for confirmation before deleting each file.
DIR	C:\>DIR		Displays a list of files and subdirectories that are in the directory
			you specify. When you use the DIR command without switches, it

			filename per line including the filename extension, size, date and
			time file was last modified; total number of files listed, cumulative
			size and free space left on the disk.
	C:\>DIR/W	/W	Displays the listing in wide format, with as many a five filenames
			or directory names on each line.
	C:\>DIR/P	/P	Displays one screen of the listing (in whatever format) at a time. It

			directories.
