About
A Video Professor series tape covering MS-DOS basics and intermediate topics, with v5 and v6 differences noted. The tape opens with the C prompt, DATE and TIME commands, CLS, and F1 and F3 function keys for command repetition. Directory and file commands include DIR, DIR /P, DIR /W, MD, CD, RD, TYPE, RENAME, DEL, and UNDELETE, with wildcards using asterisk and question mark. COPY demonstrates basic copy, copy with a path, copy with rename, and wildcard copy. Disk drive topics include FORMAT A: with quick format, UNFORMAT A: to rebuild the directory, and DISKCOPY A: A: for same-type drive duplication. BACKUP covers single file, directory, full disk with /S, /A to add, and /M for modified files; RESTORE is demonstrated alongside MSBACKUP in v6 as a full-screen GUI with file selection, compatibility test, and catalog.
Printing covers Shift+PrintScreen, the PRINT command for text files, and Ctrl+P for printer mode toggle. DOS Shell (DOSSHELL) demonstrates Alt-key menus, dual file lists, file and program lists, search with file content view via F9, View menu options, disk utilities, and exit via File, Exit or Alt+F4. MS-DOS Editor (EDIT) covers new and open files, cut, copy, paste via Alt menus with Shift+arrow selection, search with F2, change-all find-and-replace, save and save-as with different extensions, help, print, and exit.
