4.2 Built-in Commands <strong>CP</strong>/M 3 User's Guide<br />

If you include certain options in the command tall for a built-in command,<br />

<strong>CP</strong>/M 3 might return a .C0M Required message, This means that the command<br />

tail options require support from a related transient utility and <strong>CP</strong>/M 3 could not<br />

find that program file. The following files must be accessible to support all the<br />

functions these built-ins offer: ERASE.COM, RENAME.COM, TYPE.COM, and<br />

DIR.COM.<br />

Section 5 explains in detail the built-in commands listed in Table 4-1.<br />
