Supplemental Lab or Challenge Activity:
1. Go out to the web and find out what 8.3 means in regards to DOS (especially
file names).
2. Write a batch file to install a \temp folder on the root drive of a computer and
make it a hidden folder.
So What Have I Learned Here?
In this lab you have learned the basics of DOS. I find that many students do not have the
experience with DOS that I had as I was brought up through the Commodore 64’s,
IBM’s, 386’s, 486’s, etc. To me it is old-hat…to many newcomers though it is totally
foreign. You will be using DOS while you are working on many of the labs in this book
so I thought it best to put it right up front. Keep referring back to this lab as often as you
need to.
