Explain the procedure of writing a command in the DOS.
Answers
Know about Notepad and Command Prompt. Notepad isn’t any old text-editing program, because when you save it you can add any extension. Command Prompt or CMD is like DOS but it has loads more functionality. So at the Command Prompt to make things easier to use you need to right click at the blue bar at the top and select properties. Under the Tab options you need to make sure QuickEdit Mode is enabled. Click OK. A box will appear to say if you want to apply them or save them. Click on the box saying ‘Save properties for future windows with the same title’. Click OK. Learn about what it can do. You might think at this point that it is going to ruin my system. It can if you have no idea what you are doing. So to start, you need to know how to navigate between directories. Type CD c:\ then hit ↵ Enter. You will have noticed that you have gone from your documents and settings directory to your C drive's root directory. If you follow the following instructions, you are going to see every file and folder that is in that directory. Type DIR and hit ↵ Enter. Now you should see a long list. The rows of text in the last column tells you the names of the directories branching from the root directory (the top) of your C drive or in any other case, the directory you are currently in. If it is a folder, you will see <dir> in the column left of the name column in the same row. If it is as file it will not have <dir> next to it and will have a file extension (*.txt, *.exe, *.docx) at the end of the name
Procedure of writing a command in the DOS:
- Making the Program - First, we should make a DOS executable. The DOS executable is a script that runs via CMD. These files can have 'six extensions': '.exe', '.com', '.bat', '.cmd' '.vbs' or '.vbe'.
- When the script ready, rename it to the command you want, followed by any of the above extensions. The command should not have spaces in it.
- Transform it into a Command - Copy the file into C:\WINDOWS\system32\. Open cmd by typing "cmd" into 'start>Run' and hitting enter key. Then just type the name of the file without extension to test the command.
