Dos 6.2 Instant Reference

I use this book everyday it has been a great help. I work with dos programs and was always forgetting commands now I have this book and it sits on my desk for reference.

Nice for what I need...

Very easy to look up many commands with this book, and it's small making it easy to take around...Definitely not the complete reference for Dos, but no one should expect that from an "Instant Reference."

Best to use

For the novice or the technician, this is the best book to use. I have had this book since '94 and still refer to it today. It is a lot of information on MS-DOS crammed into one book, yet it is small in size (fits nicely in my briefcase).

Just what I need.

Why to buy a book on MS DOS when everybody works with Windows? Take off the Windows Logo and boot your Windows 95/98. Look at boot messages and you will understand that the underlying operating system is actually MS DOS. So, if you are a beginner and you want to understand the fundamentals of your PC's system software, you need some knowledge on MS DOS. Not too much, but you need to understand DOS design and to know some of the DOS commands, the most important DOS utilities and how to create BAT-files. All this information is available in this book. If you are an experienced programmer and you need a good reference book on MS DOS, you will be satisfied as well. "DOS 6.2 Instance Reference" contains all needed reference material in alphabetically organized entries and you find easy what you want.
