Commands

== CD == (Change Directory)

Allows you to move up and down a directory tree. CD is simple to use, just type

CD [Directory-Name]

And if the Directory-Name correctly refers to an available directory then you will be moved from your current working directory to the new one. Once completed, any command you issue will operate under the new working directory, and your prompt will be updated to reflect your current working directory. Multiple folders can be traversed at once (assuming you know the correct names) by typing their names together with the \ separating them for example

C:\>CD SIERRA\KQ5
C:\SIERRA\KQ5>

There are also 3 special directories that are available inside every directory which help you simply move around. They are

.        which refers to the current directory 

..       which refers to the directory directly above the current directory

/        which refers to the root directory

Once you have moved into a sub directory, you can move back by typing

C:\SIERRA\KQ5>CD ..
C:\SIERRA>

And like all other directories you can string them together

C:\SIERRA\KQ5>CD ..\..
C:\>

If you ever need to move back to the root directory you can use the \ alias.

C:\SIERRA\KQ5>CD \
C:\>

CHOICE

Waits for a keypress and sets ERRORLEVEL. Displays the given prompt followed by [Y,N]? for yes or no respones.

VER

View and set the reported DOS version. Also displays the running DOSBox version.

To set the reported DOS version use the following:

VER SET <MAJOR> [MINOR]

where MAJOR is the number before the period, and MINOR is what comes after.

Versions can range from 0.0 to 255.255. Any values over 255 will loop from zero. (That is, 256=0, 257=1, 258=2, etc)
