| Dos for Unix People SUMMARY: Use these quick batch files in case you accidently type UNIX commands on your DOS or Windows machine.
I use DOS a lot. I use Unix a lot. And, like others who use both OS's, I sometimes forgetfully type in the wrong command. I type in 'quit' when I mean 'exit,' 'ls' when I mean 'dir', and so forth.
Why not create a few basic batch files in your root, batch, or command directory that can help you out? Even simple one-line batch files like the following may help when you want the computer to do what you want it to do, not what you tell it to do <G>. Just type in these commands, substituting C:\ with your batch file directory of choice.
echo @exit > c:\logout.bat
echo @exit > c:\quit.bat
echo @dir %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 > c:\ls.bat
