- ATTRIB.COM -- This program allows you to change the attributes on a
- file under MS-DOS version 2. To use the program, copy ATTRIB.COM to
- your system disk, and enter
-
- A>ATTRIB <filename> <attributes>
-
- where <filename> is the name of the file to change attributes on, and
- <attributes> are the new attributes to be set. You can use wildcards
- in the file name, to affect more than one file. The attributes that
- can be set are
-
- R -- Read only.
- H -- Hidden.
- S -- System.
- B -- Backup. Also known as the Archive attribute.
-
- Any attribute that is not specified in the command line will be
- removed from the file(s). If you run ATTRIB without any argument, it
- will print instructions on its use.
-
- Note: ATTRIB should be used carefully. Damage to system files
- could result from the attributes being removed from them. ATTRIB
- is for use with MS-DOS version 2 only.
