- <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< CD ... CHANGE DIRECTORY >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
-
- BACKGROUND: DOS 2.0 and higher permits multiple directories on one
- disk. The use of multiple directories is handy because some disks
- have hundreds of files which should be organized into logical groups.
-
- The ROOT directory is the primary directory and it is represented
- simply by a backslash (\). It is like the trunk of a tree. Secondary
- directories are like limbs connected to the trunk.
-
- ; CD\ .. Returns you to the ROOT directory.
-
- ; CD\WORDSTAR .. Takes you to a WORDSTAR directory which
- ; is attached to the ROOT directory.
-
- ; CHDIR A:\DOSFILES .. Takes you to the DOSFILE directory on
- ; Drive A. CHDIR means the same thing as
- ; CD.
-
- ; CD C:\PROGRAMS\LOTUS Takes you to the LOTUS directory ...
- ; a directory subordinate to PROGRAMS.
-
- ; CD Displays name of current directory.
